Now available in paperback-the award-winning first study of Spanish-language literature of Southeast Asia and West Africa
Argues that literature in Spanish from Asia and Africa, though virtually unknown, reimagines the supposed centres and peripheries of the modern world in fundamental ways. Through archival research and comparative readings, The Magellan Fallacy rethinks mainstream mappings of diverse cultures while advocating the creation of a new field of scholarship: global literature in Spanish.
