Edited by Andrea
L. Bell and Yolanda
Molina-Gavilan
Thanks to high-profile, globally acclaimed authors like Gabriel

Luis Borges, Isabel
Allende, Carlos
Fuentes, and many others, Latin American literature has grown in popularity
and stature over the last 25 years. This important anthology -- the first

more than ten Spanish-speaking countries. Ranging from 1862 to the present
day, Cosmos Latinos offers works by 27 authors who are famous and
influential in their native countries, but relatively unknown in the U.S.
Some of authors included are Nilo Maria Fabra, Angel Arango, Hugo Correa,
Angelica Gorodischer, and Pepe Rojo.

By Tony
Horwitz
"What a fantastic book. It is a well-written, fascinating account of Captain
Cook and the colonization and devastation of the Pacific. And, of course,
mixed in with the grim and tragic is Horwitz's characteristic wit. I couldn't
put it down." -- Julia Green, Front Street Books, Alpine, TX
