Latin American Boom 2018

Hello everyone, I recently uploaded some PDFs for English teachers. I checked out some books at my local library this weekend--one on women writers and magical realism, another on the writings of Carlos Fuentes, and another about magical realism in general. Just go to the "English Resources" tab and open the Google drive folder. The citations for these books are under the "Bibliography" tab ( English Language Resources section).

If you are a subscriber to Great Courses , there is a lecture on García Márquez's story in English that you might find interesting. It also helps give a little bit of background on magical realism. The course title is "Masterpieces of Short Fiction" and it is Lecture #16 . Please note that you would need a subscription to access the lecture.
