  • Juan Criollo , After Forty Years

    Open AccessJ Riis OwreARTICLEJournal of Inter-American Studies1967

    Since Carlos Loveira's last novel was published in 1927, the whole way of life which it described—and described with what bitter disillusion!—has disappeared. The Cuba Loveira knew, and the Cuba he hoped would evolve, are both lost—perhaps irretrievably— but the novel itself, seen through the perspective of four decades and a social upheaval, now seems to have even greater values, both as a work of art and as a social document, than its first rea…

No contemporary history of Sp…

    J Riis OwreARTICLEHispania1962

    Venezuela's greatest novelist has stated clearly his belief that American literature should orient itself toward the rural scene and the common man-hacia el pueblo y el campo.... El americanismo hay que arrancirselo por tanto a 6gloga.l All of his novels save the first (Reinaldo Solar, 1920) and the most recent (La brizna de paja en el viento, 1952) are definitely rural in setting.
