About the book
A tour de force of black humor, composed of short biographies of imaginary pan-American authors, providing sketch character portraits that are often pathetically funny, sometimes surprisingly moving, and on occasion, authentically chilling. "La literatura nazi en América es, en palabras de su autor, 'una antología vagamente enciclopédica de la literatura filonazi producida en América desde 1930 hasta 2010, un contexto cultural que, a diferencia de Europa, no tiene conciencia de lo que es y donde se cae con frecuencia en la desmesura'. Escrita a imitación de los diccionarios de literatura, esta ingeniosísima obra de ficción disfrazada de manual se compone de las más variadas reseñas dedicadas a la vida y la obra de autores inexistentes de una literatura inexistente, y constituye una excelente parodia de la historia real de la literatura iberoamericana."--Back cover.
