Title: La estructura de la novela nicaragüense
First published: 1995
Description: "After Jorge Eduardo Arellano, Urbina is one of the better (and among the very few) interpreters of nonpolitical Nicaraguan literature. This work focuses on the conventional novel. His approach is predominantly narratological, and despite the formal limits of that methodology, Urbina's solid knowledge of Nicaraguan literary history rescues many 1920s and 1930s novels. The older works help contextualize the contemporary novels that are his corpus.  Narratological terminology overwhelms the book's three short parts, so we learn mostly about Aguilar, Ramírez, Chávez Alfaro, and other representative novelists"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
