Latino/a Children's and Young Adult Writers on the Art of Storytelling, Paperback / softback Book

Latino/a Children's and Young Adult Writers on the Art of Storytelling Paperback / softback

Part of the Latinx and Latin American Profiles series

Paperback / softback

Description

Children's and young adult literature has become an essential medium for identity formation in contemporary Latino/a culture in the United States.

This book is an original collection of more than thirty interviews led by Frederick Luis Aldama with Latino/a authors working in the genre.

The conversations revolve around the conveyance of young Latino/a experience, and what that means for the authors as they overcome societal obstacles and aesthetic complexity.

The authors also speak extensively about their experiences within the publishing industry and with their audiences.

As such, Aldama's collection presents an open forum to contemporary Latino/a writers working in a vital literary category and sheds new light on the myriad formats, distinctive nature, and cultural impact it offers.
