For centuries the world entered and left through the Caribbean, that profuse region capable of shaking history and lifting it up like a hurricane. That force, today more than ever, has been consolidated in Puerto Rico, where an endemic seed of disruptive, contemporary and incisive literature abounds. In this selection, made by Mara Pastor, there are authors who write from their own island, or from the diaspora, of different generations, there are previously published or unpublished works, queer voices, police texts, science fiction and poetic prose. This book transpires a piece of the fascinating literary plurality of Puerto Rico, whose prolific moment cannot be overlooked.
