New Islands and Other Stories

by María Luisa Bombal

Book Overview

Mar'a Louisa Bombal was one of the most important Latin American writers of the century. While a younger generation of writers such as Carlos Fuentes and Gabriel Garc'a Marquez have become celebrated in this country, the works of Bombal are little known to English-speaking readers. The stories in New Islands, written in the 1940s, represent the best of her work.
