Description: "This study introduces selected works of twentieth-century Ecuadorian literature to non-Ecuadorian specialists and to a larger, non-Spanish speaking, audience of readers interested in the interrelations between literatures of the Americas."--BOOK JACKET.

"It examines works by several of Ecuador's most important writers in terms of the interrelations of history and myth, of realism and magic or marvelous realism, and the problems of using orality and dialogism to actively undermine authoritative discourse."--BOOK JACKET.
