Reviews
A must for any student of the Latin American novel. González Mandri thoroughly unveils with ease and elegance the unity and the thematic/structural transformations in Donoso's art., González Mandri's readings of Donoso's fiction as a series of staged theatrical voices and performances, and the house as the metaphoric structure that circumscribes both performance and audience, afford a clever interpretative twist. Her analyses are articulate and provocative.

Synopsis
In this critical volume Flora Gonzalez Mandri provides a comprehensive reading of the narrative works of Jose Donoso, Chile's most prominent novelist. A respected member of the Latin American Boom, his international reputation was established in 1970 with publication of The Obscene Bird of Night. While Donoso has long been canonized as one of the preeminent Latin American narrators, and translations of his novels and short prose have been available for some time, there has been no book-length study of his work in English until now. Gonzalez Mandri focuses on Donoso's novels and novellas fr om the 1950s through today, including Coronation (1957), A House in the Country (1978), The Garden Next Door (1981), and "Taratuta" (1990). She concentrates particularly on questions of space and perspective within the theatrical-novelistic world he creates, considering the "house" in Donoso's fiction-the family home, brothel, convent, or apartment-as theater. The doors and windows of his houses act as frames for dramatic scenes within whichhe directs the movements of his subjects for his audience. This volume examines the multiple narrative perspectives Donoso presents and traces a transformation in Donoso's works from complex stage performance to political forum. Studying fiction as grotesque, mannered theater or as a transparent screen through which social and political concerns are scrutinized, Gonzalez Mandri illuminates another constant in Donoso's work: a weaving of feminine and masculine aspects of artistic voice as they incorporate the idioms of drama, radio, film, and television. Using the cultural theories of Bakhtin and Foucault and the seminal studies of theatricality by Peter Brooks and Barbara Freedman, Gonzalez Mandri explores Donoso's complete novelistic works to date, placing him at the crux of Latin American postmodern production. Her sensitive readings of his novels provide access to the first-time reader of Donoso at the same time that they require experts to reconsider foregone conclusions, particularly concerning issues of gender, genre, and social perspective., This text examines the multiple narrative perspectives Donoso presents and traces a transformation in Donoso's works from complex stage performance to political forum.

    Quality was as described. Good condition for a used book. Exactly what I was looking for. Selling price was fair given the market prices for books in this series. Seller shipped promptly but US Postal Service was slow in delivering, not fault of seller. Packaging was excellent and protected the book in transit as well as preventing damage from the US Mail carrier who stuffed it in our mailbox, with other packages, instead of bringing packages to the door. I am very satisfied.

    A very good and efficient transaction from start to finish. Shipping was quick and on time. Packing was good and protected. The yearbook was exactly as described in the details. Based on my research I believe that it was a good value. I would use this seller again.

    The seller inaccurately described the book as having a few small creases in the corners. The book was shipped and arrived very securely and well-packaged; however, the entire right edges of the pages of about a quarter of the book itself were severely bent and warped, clearly something which occurred pre-shipping. I believe I can get the pages flattened by stacking weights on the book over a prolonged period of time, but the seller’s description is very inaccurate.
