Book Synopsis
Interviews, with contextual critical material, with nine celebrated contemporary Hispanic novelists. Nine of today's most celebrated Hispanic writers reveal themselves and their concerns, and how the latter are reflected in their work. The writers are Ricardo Piglia, Antonio Muñoz Molina, Juan José Millás, José María Merino, Enrique Vila-Matas, Quim Monzó, Cristina Fernández Cubas, Pedro Zarraluki and Ray Loriga. The interviews allow readers closer personal acquaintance with the subjects, their fiction and their cultural circumstances, in the process touching on major intellectual issues of today - the definition of reality, the role of art and the challenge of otherness. Each conversation is introduced by an essay commenting on the main themes in the author's works. The book contains a detailed bibliography and an extensive general introduction, which presents the intellectual context for the issues discussed. Entrevistas con Ricardo Piglia y ocho eminentes escritores españoles: Antonio Muñoz Molina, Juan José Millás, José María Merino, Enrique Vila-Matas, Quim Monzó, Cristina Fernández Cubas, Pedro Zarraluki y Ray Loriga. Son extensas conversaciones sobre la narrativa de cada escritor, abordando los problemas máss en ella. Pero las conversaciones no sólo permiten conocer a fondo a los escritores y entender mejor sus ideas sino también contienen gran variedad de comentarios sobre los temas más polémicos de finales del siglo XX - el carácter de la realidad, el papel del arte y la importancia de la otredad. Las entrevistas van precedidas de ensayos que se centran en la obra de cada autor y de una introducción general, donde se presentan los temas tratados, y las acompaña una bibliografía detallada. KATARZYNA OLGA BEILIN es profesora de español en la Universidad de Wisconsin en Madison.
