"The Emergence of Latin American Science Fiction brings to life an array of literary works and places a nascent genre squarely within the exciting social and artistic debates of the time."—Andrea Bell, editor of Cosmos Latinos

"This tour-de-force is extraordinarily thorough and innovative, bringing both canonical and little-known works from Spanish America and Brazil into a different light—that of the science fiction genre."—Mary Elizabeth Ginway, author of Brazilian Science Fiction: Cultural Myths and Nationhood in the Land of the Future
