Complacency has never been a hallmark of Latin American literature. As the 21st century dawned, many young writers - and even some who had fueled the Latin American Boom - grew disenchanted with the status quo. This program profiles the careers and the potential of literary artists at the forefront of the region’s emerging narrative trends. Addressing the influence of the Crack Movement and the McOndo Group - as well as an increasing overlap between cinematic and literary concerns - the program studies the work of César Aira, Ricardo Piglia, Sergio Pitol, Juan Villoro, Fernando Vallejo, Roberto Bolaño, Jorge Volpi, Alberto Fuguet, Edmundo Paz Soldán, Marosa di Giorgio, and Pedro Lemebel. Some language may be offensive. An FFH&S/Tranquilo Production.
