Because science fiction is part of Latin American popular culture, it reflects cultural and social concerns and comments on contemporary society. While there is a growing body of criticism on Latin American science fiction, most studies treat only a single author or work. This reference offers a broad overview of Latin American science fiction. Included are alphabetically arranged entries on 70 Latin American science fiction writers.||WScience fiction, Latin AmericanHistory and criticismDictionariesScience fiction, Latin AmericanBio-bibliographyDictionariesAuthors, Latin AmericanBiographyDictionariesScience fiction, Latin AmericanHistory and criticismScience fiction, Latin AmericanAuthors, Latin American863/.087620998/03BLockhart Darrell B1504380MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910780647603321Latin American science fiction writers3733334UNINA
