Zusammenfassung:With this ground-breaking book, Kenton V. Stone presents to North American readers one of the most intriguing writers to emerge out of Latin America in recent years, Uruguay's Carlos Martinez Moreno
Martinez Moreno started writing in the 1960s and achieved international reknown in 1981 when he was awarded Mexico's international fiction prize (by a panel including Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Julio Cortazar, and Ariel Dorfman) for his novel El color que el infierno me escondiera - a novel which, as the title suggests, takes the classic work of Dante Allighieri as its model. Stone's study of Martinez Moreno's novels has a dual purpose. The first purpose is to show that Martinez Moreno is a writer of the "Boom" in the Latin-American novel of the 1960s who deserves a revival in critical attention
The second purpose is to propose that new readings of his work extend beyond political protest to a study of Dantesque moral analysis - especially evident in El Infierno
