Roberto González Echeverría's "Short Stories from Latin America" showcases the rich tradition of Latin American short stories, dispelling the notion that its writers emerged spontaneously in the 1960s. This anthology, compiled for Oxford University by González Echeverría, a Yale professor of Latin American and Comparative Literature, traces the evolution of the genre from the colonial era—with early narratives like Fray Bartolomé de las Casas's protests—to the contemporary works of masters such as Carlos Fuentes, Gabriel García Márquez, and Rosario Ferré, alongside luminaries like Jorge Luis Borges. Each story represents a distinct period, offering a curated selection of the best works and making it a highly recommended read for enthusiasts of Latin American literature.
