Book Overview
This is a revised, updated edition of Jean Franco's classic Introduction to Spanish-American Literature, first published in 1969 and much recommended ever since. Its coverage ranges from colonial times to the present day, the later chapters having been radically rewritten to take account of the most recent developments in both literature and criticism. English translations are provided for Spanish quotations in the text, and the extensively updated reading lists of primary and secondary material refer not only to Spanish texts but also, where available, to editions in English.

Very good
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
It's probably the best summary you could hope for in such a concise format. For anyone who's interested in the topic but doesn't have the time to read a 4 volume history, this is a good one. A caveat however, there are some factual errors (a few mistakes on dates of publication, etc.) that better editing should have caught.
