"Central American Literatures as World Literature marks an important milestone in the opening up of Central American studies to a broader paradigm. Its contributors discuss some of Central America's most renowned authors as well as lesser known but increasingly important Black, Indigenous, queer, and immigrant writers. This book draws us away from the narrow nationalist frameworks that have dominated our understanding of Central American society and moves us toward the pluricultural realities and diverse Indigenous cosmologies of the region. I applaud the editor and the contributors for producing a volume that showcases the richness of Central American literature and its diaspora." --Nanci Buiza, Associate Professor of Spanish, Swarthmore College, USA

"This book is a passionate reflection of Central American literature's participation in the construction of world ideas, anchored in the isthmus' diverse cultural constellations and in the routes of travel, exile and migration. It shows brilliantly how precarious cultural fields can intervene in the redefining of world literature." --Mónica Albizúrez, Lecturer of Spanish and Latin American Literature, Universität Hamburg, Germany
