In this expertly crafted, richly detailed guide, Raymond Leslie Williams explores the cultural, political, and historical events that have shaped the Latin American and Caribbean novel since the end of World War II. In addition to works originally composed in English, Williams covers novels written in Spanish, Portuguese, French, Dutch, and Haitian Creole, and traces the profound influence of modernization, revolution, and democratization on the writing of this era. Beginning in 1945, Williams introduces major trends by region, including the Caribbean and U.S. Latino novel, the Mexican and Central American novel, the Andean novel, the Southern Cone novel, and the novel of Brazil. He discusses the rise of the modernist novel in the 1940s, led by Jorge Luis Borges's reaffirmation of the right of invention, and covers the advent of the postmodern generation of the 1990s in Brazil, the Generation of the "Crack" in Mexico, and the McOndo generation in other parts of Latin America. An alphabetical guide offers biographies of authors, coverage of major topics, and brief introductions to individual novels. It also addresses such areas as women's writing, Afro-Latin American writing, and magic realism. The guide's final section includes an annotated bibliography of introductory studies on the Latin American and Caribbean novel, national literary traditions, and the work of individual authors. From early attempts to synthesize postcolonial concerns with modernist aesthetics to the current focus on urban violence and globalization, The Columbia Guide to the Latin American Novel Since 1945 presents a comprehensive, accessible portrait of a thoroughly diverse and complex branch of world literature.

Miles de personas entran y salen todos los días de Bilbao a través del túnel de Malmasín. Pocas sospechan que sobre sus cabezas, en la cima de ese monte situado entre Arrigorriaga y Basauri, se hallan los restos de un poblado fortificado de la Edad de Hierro, el período inmediatamente anterior a la época romana. Francisco Panera se ha inspirado en esos restos para escribir El sueño de Akala, una novela en la que caristios y autrigones, dos de los pueblos que, como várdulos, berones o vascones, habitaron hace 2.000 años lo que hoy es territorio vasco, mantienen un pleito secular por el control de una posición estratégica en torno a un río que bien pudiera ser el Nervión. Los romanos deciden intervenir en la disputa y lo hacen como juez y parte. En ese marco se desenvuelven los personajes de esta novela, muchos y variados, desde un chico capaz de vislumbrar el futuro, a una anciana marginada por los suyos acusada de hechicería, pasando por una mujer que acaba de enviudar en extrañas circunstancias o un veterano tribuno romano cuya convicción en las bondades del Imperio está a punto de resquebrajarse. El sueño de Akala es ante todo una trepidante novela de aventuras, repleta de lances y giros inesperados. Pero, como toda buena novela, no renuncia a abordar cuestiones fundamentales, como el amor, la ambición, la lealtad o la libertad.

Acabada la Guerra Fría y con teóricos que proclamaban «el fin de la historia», apareció un nuevo fenómeno que ha marcado el siglo XXI: el terrorismo islamista, que atacaba a Occidente y soñaba con crear un califato trasnacional. Es un tema sobre el que se ha opinado, debatido y escrito hasta la saciedad, pero que sigue envuelto en una nebulosa de paradojas y lugares comunes. Este ensayo intenta analizar y comprender –que no justificar– los motivos que subyacen tras esta inquietante realidad. Considera el autor que estamos, tras dos guerras mundiales, ante la primera guerra global, que ya no es interestatal y cuyo campo de batalla alcanza cualquier parte del mundo. En ella se enfrentan drones –fruto de la obsesión norteamericana por reducir a cero las bajas propias– contra mártires, y la preeminencia de las soluciones militares sobre las políticas no augura nada bueno. Pero para entenderla más allá de los clichés hay que ahondar en sus raíces y motivaciones, explorar aspectos cruciales que demasiadas veces quedan fuera de foco: el peso de la historia, desde la idea del califato hasta Afganistán como uno de los últimos escenarios de la Guerra Fría; cómo y por qué los movimientos de liberación árabes –antiimperialistas, laicos y socializantes– han dado paso al islamismo como ideología aglutinadora; el origen del concepto de martirio y la paradoja de que buena parte de los aspirantes a mártires provengan de Occidente y sean hijos de emigrantes formados en escuelas laicas; las motivaciones políticas que se ocultan bajo la fachada religiosa teñida de épica y sacrificio, y sobre todo el enfrentamiento entre dos concepciones antagónicas de la libertad y de la relación entre el individuo y la comunidad, la de Occidente y la que hay detrás del sueño del califato. Este es un libro que plantea algunas preguntas incómodas para tratar de descubrir las verdaderas claves de un conflicto todavía abierto. Un libro que pone el pensamiento al servicio de la comprensión de la realidad en toda su complejidad.

Víctor abrió los ojos y los fijó en la pared de enfrente, una pared que debería haberle devuelto una imagen familiar: una estantería ligeramente torcida, repleta de libros y vinilos, un puñado de entradas a conciertos clavadas con chinchetas, una foto tomada en una discoteca en la que aparecía rodeado de varias personas, entre ellas una tía a la que se había tirado un par de veces y cuyo nombre le costaba recordar... «¿Cómo es posible...?», se preguntó consternado, jurándose a sí mismo que no volvería a beber. A partir de aquí, el protagonista de esta novela se embarcará en un particular viaje por la ciudad de Madrid en el que se mezclarán fantasía y realidad, se enfrentará a innumerables peligros y a secretos ancestrales, conocerá la ambición, la codicia y el poder ilimitado de la venganza, pero también vivirá experiencias extraordinarias de la mano de personajes singulares que dejarán una honda huella en él, que le marcarán para siempre y que le ayudarán a alcanzar su particular redención.
