Abstract

This chapter concludes a book whose intention it is to refocus attention on two significant literary phenomenons of recent Latin American literature: the McOndo anthology (1996), and the Crack Manifesto (1996) and novels. The chapter is a critical interview and conversation between the authors Edmundo Paz Soldán and Naief Yehya, two contributors to the McOndo anthology, Pedro Ángel Palou an author from the Crack movement, and Cristina Rivera Garza a celebrated Mexican author who remained apart from both these two movements. In the interview my co-author Jonatán Martín Gómez and I formulated question which lead to discussion relating to the current state of Spanish-language publishing, their involvement and retrospective analysis of McOndo and Crack, and their thoughts on discourses surrounding literary creativity and their relationship to technology and transmediality.
