Description

Book Synopsis
How literature affected political revolutions in three Central American countries.

Trade Review
This is a stimulating and important book on a subject that has been widely discussed in recent years, but rarely with the theoretical precision and wealth of detail displayed here. . . . A fine contribution to a fascinating area of literary and political practice. * Bulletin of Latin American Research *
