Notes:
Review of Karen Christian's Origins of Identity. Vargas writes, "Even though Christian concurs with other critics that the works of Latinas and Latinos are often unjustly measured up against great Spanish American masters-Borges, Cortazar, Fuentes, and Garcia Marquez-she also concedes that in some cases the comparisons are warranted." Christian cites a number of similarities between the works of these Latina/Latino writers and those of García Márquez.
