- René Prieto reviews Body of Writing, reflecting on the desiring body as figured and inscribed in the works of some of Spanish America's most famous writers, including Julio Cortázar and Gabriel García Márquez. "Through a masterful deployment of psychoanalytic and feminist theory as well as a pertinent examination of authors' autobiography and psychology, he convincingly reveals what is at stake in some of the most enigmatic aspects of these authors' texts. His book is to be recommended with enthusiasm," states Prieto.

- Viewed on 24 January, 2008.||This is an extensive conversation between Harry Morales and Gregory Rabassa where they discuss Rabassa's work as translator to many important Latin American authors such as Julio Cortázar and Gabriel García Márquez. ||Rabassa states, "Gabriel García Márquez, had complete faith in what I was doing and let me go my way. García Márquez ended up saying that he liked the English version of One Hundred Years of Solitude better than his Spanish original. He was probably just being gracious, but it was pleasing to hear in any case."

- Secondary source, About García Márquez: The Man, the Reporter, the Writer
- Publication Date:

- Stanford, CA : Stanford University Press
- Location:
- Library, University of Illinois
- Notes:
- "The Ends of Literature analyzes the part played by literature within contemporary Latin American thought and politics, above all, the politics of neoliberalism. The "why?" of contemporary Latin American literature is the book's over-arching concern. Its wide range includes close readings of the prose of Cortázar, Carpentier, Paz, Valenzuela, Piglia, and Las Casas, of the relationship of the "Boom" movement and its aftermath, of testimonial narrative, and of contemporary Chilean and Chicano film. The work also investigates in detail various theoretical projects as they intersect with and emerge from Latin American scholarship: cultural studies, deconstruction, psychoanalysis, and postcolonial studies." This book focuses on the era of the Boom, where García Márquez and Julio Cortázar are prominent.
