U.S. Latinx Literature in Spanish remains an understudied field
despite its large and vibrant corpus. This is partly due to the
erroneous impression that this literature is only written in
English, and partly due to traditional educational programs
focusing on English texts to include non-Spanish speakers and
non-Latinx students. This has created a vacuum in research about
Latinx literary production in Spanish, leaving the contemporary
field wide open for exploration. This volume fills this space by
bringing contemporary U.S. Latinx literature in Spanish to the
forefront of the field. The essays focus on literary production
post-1960 and examine texts by authors from different backgrounds
writing from the U.S., providing readers with an opportunity to
explore new texts in Spanish within U.S. Latinx literature, and a
departure point for starting a meaningful critical discourse about
what it means to write and publish in Spanish in the U.S. Through
exploring literary production in a language that is both
emotionally and politically charged for authors, the academia, and
the U.S., this book challenges and enhances our understanding of
the term 'Americas'.
