Great Compilation of Hispanic Literature

This book is by far one of the most superior and enjoyable books regarding Hispanic literature that I have ever read. It contains short stories such as: "El Brujo Postergado", "El Stadium", "Jaque Mate en Dos Jugadas", "La Rebellión", and "El Venado". Along with these and 8 other short stories, the book also consists of around 33 poems by different authors of various genres, two essays (La Raza Cosmica by José Vasconcelos and Máscaras Mexicanas by Octavio Paz), and finally a brief 50 pg. excerpt of the novel El Túnel by Ernesto Sábato. Overall, the difficulty of this book is intended for advanced readers who have studied at least three years of spanish or more. It would also be very handy for people who are either considering taking the AP Spanish Literature course or for those who are currently taking the course. The book has a seemingly endless array of complex grammatical structures along with a sea of new vocabulary - which would undoubtedly prove to be useful for anyone looking to extend his or her vocabulary. While the price may be a little steep, the timeless stories and adventures with which the book has to offer are priceless, and can thoroughly be enjoyed by all who simply love a good read. Very highly recommended.

The doorway to Hispanic literature.

Gonzalez has put together a marvelous anthology for review by anyone interested in Hispanic literature. This book contains some of the great works by Neruda, Nervo, and Paz. It will give the reader a new level of appreciation for Spanish language poetry and writings. The poetry section was by far my favorite. I am now hooked on several of the authors included, and have even used some of the background information given for each author to introduce their works to my own high school Spanish class. A must buy for the person interested in learning more about this area of literature.
