Description
Summary:This essay contextualizes the reasons why Luis Harss adds a disillusioned epilogue to the 1969 edition of his now classic Los nuestros, suggesting that the maturity of Latin American literature he celebrated in 1966 was really a commercial and advertising endeavor. To explain our hypothesis about that epilogue, based on archival material and letters, the article revises and updates the role Cortázar and García Márquez play in Los nuestros.
