Notes:
Iwasaki strongly states his desire not to be compared with anybody and insists that no author wants to be compared to authors such as Vargas Llosa, García Márquez, Fuentes, and Cortázar, among others. In other words, today's authors will not be the same as these great artists from the past, and it is harder for new authors to become world-renown because of the expectations that they have to fulfill.
"John Sayles's film Lone Star provides insights relevant to the task of remapping "The South" within a broader hemispheric context. In his homage to the genealogical obsessions of such writers as Faulkner and García Márquez, Sayles explores the challenge posed by the determinism of a paternalistic past. The film stresses the paradoxical meaning of incest as reconciliation: history must be revisited precisely so that it can be rendered irrelevant to the task of re-imagining racial and regional identities in a plural America."

"This paper looks at some problems deriving from Neruda’s relationship with books and literary culture. It lays open the anti-literary positions that the poet announces in different texts and tries to sketch a conciliation of these positions with the love of books that Neruda not only declared but also exercised in his zeal as collector and in his readings. At the same time some of his ideas about poetry and the obligations of the poet are examined." Briefly names García Márquez in a list of poets and writers.
