In this innovative study, Carol Clark D'Lugo examines fragmentation as a literary strategy that reflects the social and political fissures within modern Mexican society and introduces readers to a more participatory reading of texts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eD'Lugo traces defining moments in the development of Mexican fiction and the role fragmentation plays in each. Some of the topics she covers are nationalist literature of the 1930s and 1940s, self-referential novels of the 1950s that focus on the process of reading and writing, the works of Carlos Fuentes, novels of \u003ci\u003eLa Onda\u003c\/i\u003e that came out of rebellious 1960s Mexican youth culture, gay and lesbian fiction, and recent women's writings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith its sophisticated theoretical methodology that encompasses literature and society, this book serves as an admirable survey of the twentieth-century Mexican novel.
