{"product_id":"aesthetic-border-brantley-nicholson-9781684483662","title":"The Aesthetic Border: Colombian Literature in the Face of Globalization","description":"This groundbreaking study examines how modern Colombian literature--from Gabriel García Márquez to Juan Gabriel Vásquez--reflects one of the world's most tumultuous entrances into globalization. While these literary icons, one canonical, the other emergent, bookend Colombia's fall and rise on the world stage, the period between the two was inordinately violent, spanning the Colombian urban novel's evolution into narco-literature. Marking Colombia's cultural and literary manifestations as threefold, this book explores García Márquez's retreat to a rural romanticism that paradoxically made him a global literary icon; the country's violent end to the twentieth century when its largest economic export was narcotics; and the contemporary period in which a new major author has emerged to create a \"literature of national reconstitution.\" Harkening back to the Regeneration movement and extending through the early twenty-first century, this book analyzes the cultural implications of Colombia's relationship to the wider world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Brantley Nicholson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1684483662\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781684483662\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bucknell University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/22\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 162\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Brantley Nicholson","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44057698238719,"sku":"9781684483662","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_57cb99ec-d790-4c35-90d2-b6138ccc46ac.jpg?v=1685048430","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/aesthetic-border-brantley-nicholson-9781684483662","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
