La obra de Garc???a M???rquez es incomprensible sin la de Cort???zar, y la de Cort???zar es incomprensible sin la de Vargas Llosa, y se establece toda una red que corresponde a algo muy real. Porque yo s??? que cada uno de nosotros es muy consciente de lo que est???n haciendo los dem???s.??? -Carlos Fuentes, 1968 ???Este libro re???ne, por primera vez, la correspondencia entre los cuatro principales novelistas del Boom latinoamericano: Cort???zar, Fuentes, Garc???a M???rquez y Vargas Llosa. Los dos ???ltimos recibieron el Premio Nobel, y los dos primeros lo merec???an; a nadie hubiera sorprendido que lo obtuvieran. Esta conversaci???n entre cuatro amigos brillantes y exitosos nos ofrece un acceso sin precedentes a sus relaciones personales y colectivas, con todos sus encuentros y desencuentros, y nos abre una ventana privilegiada a la literatura y la pol???tica latinoamericanas, especialmente durante un periodo crucial de su historia moderna, entre 1959 y 1975. ??? Las cartas del Boom narra el momento de m???ximo auge de este cuarteto, en el que los creadores parec???an empezar a escribir menos solos para tocar en conjunto como parte de una misma literatura, y ahonda en ese reconocimiento y esa regeneraci???n de un pasado en com???n. ??? Encontrar cuatro grandes escritores en un contexto hist???rico casi sin paralelo, comunic???ndose durante varios a???os para dialogar sobre novela, literatura, historia latinoamericana, sus propias biograf???as y la din???mica de sus ideas dentro de ese contexto, es absolutamente ???nico. Las p???ginas de este libro cuentan esa historia.???. - Los editores ENGLISH DESCRIPTION "Garc???a M???rquez' work is unfathomable without Cort???zar's, and Cort???zar's is unfathomable without Vargas Llosa's, and an entire network related to something very real is established. Because I know each one of us is keenly aware of what the others are doing." --Carlos Fuentes, 1968 "This book collects, for the very first time, the personal correspondence between the four master novelists of the Latin American Boom: Cort???zar, Fuentes, Garc???a M???rquez, and Vargas Llosa. The latter two were awarded the Nobel Prize, and the first two deserved it. No one would have been surprised if they had received it. This conversation among four brilliant and successful friends gives us unprecedented access to their personal and collective relationships, with all their agreements and disagreements, and opens a privileged window to Latin American literature and politics, specially during a crucial time in their modern history, from 1959 to 1975. " Boom Letters chronicles this quartet's highest peak, when the artists seemed to start writing less on their own and play together as part of the same literature, exploring this appreciation and the regeneration of a common past. "Finding four great writers in an almost unparalleled historical setting--communicating over several years to discuss novels, literature, Latin American history, their own biographies, and the dynamics of their ideas within such context--is absolutely unique. These pages tell their story." --The editors
