A seminar on middle-modern to late-modern fictions by Alejo Carpentier (1949-1962 El reino de este mundo and El siglo de las luces), Carlos Fuentes (1980 Una familia Lejana), and Gabriel García Márquez (1989 El general en su laberinto). Reread as defunct belles-lettres. Main critical and theoretical points of in-depth reference: Derek Walcott's rogue Robinson-Crusoe Caribbean poetics and Jared Hickman's exorbitant Black Prometheus. Taught in English.
