Very Brief Dementias, Cuban Writing of the Nineties

“His studies of the countryside, these discoveries that Amir has made by traveling and reading in every corner of the country for several years, constitute the best document of what has happened and is happening in this country”.

Raúl Antonio Capote, Cuban writer

Brevísimas demencias, ensayos, Amir ValleDo conceptual, thematic and formal differences exist among the young writers of the Nineties and their antecedents? Are they new, post-new, post-modern? How do they insert themselves into the wave of the most recent Latin American writing? These and other questions are elucidated in the profound and vast study that this book proposes, with solid, daring and provocative arguments that attest to the presence of the well-established movement of creators who, at the end of the Nineties in the Twentieth Century, totally transformed Cuban writing.
