Book Synopsis
This is an examination of the fictional work of one of Latin America's most prolific, yet overlooked, writers. Born in Colombia to parents of mixed ancestry, Zapata Olivella uses his novels to explore the plight of the downtrodden in his nation and by extension the experience of blacks in other parts of the Americas.

Trade Review
Tillis's book represents an important continuation to the very vital scholarship of critics who have promoted and substantiated the perennial place of Zapata Olivella in Colombian, Latin American, and world letters. - James J. Davis
