A Thousand Forests in One Acorn: An Anthology of SpanishLanguage Fiction brings together twentyeight of the most important Spanishlanguage writers of the twentieth centuryseveral of which will be familiar to Englishlanguage readers, like Carlos Fuentes, Javier Maras, and Mario Vargas Llosa, and many who will be new revelations, such as Aurora Venturini, Sergio Pitol, and Elvio Gandolfoand provides them with a chance to discuss their careers and explain the aesthetic influences behind the pieces they chose to include in this volume. Unlike other anthologies, the stories and excerpts collected here were selected by the authors themselves and represent the "high point" of their writing career.Valerie Milestranslator, editor, and cofounder of Granta en espaolnot only curated perhaps the greatest crosssection of contemporary Spanishlanguage literature to be anthologized, but also brings to this collection original interviews with every author, along with biographic prefaces before each, in order to best introduce the reader to the author's entire oeuvre and his or her literary impact.Breathtaking in scope and historical detail, this anthology will no doubt become a fixture in personal literary collections, as well as a goto resource for classrooms and libraries alike.Valerie Miles is a publisher, writer, translator, and the cofounder of Granta en espaol. She is also the codirector of The New York Review of Books in its Spanish translation and, in 2013, was voted one of the "Most Influential Professionals in Publishing" by the Buenos Aires Book Fair.Contributors:Rafael ChirbesEdgardo CozarinskyJose de la ColinaCristina Fernandez CubasAlfredo Bryce EcheniqueJorge EdwardsAbilio EstevezRafael Sanchez FerlosioCarlos FuentesElvio GandolfoJuan GoytisoloJavier MariasJuan MarseAna Maria MatuteEduardo MendozaJose Maria MerinoAntonio Munoz MolinaHoracio Castellanos MoyaRicardo PigliaRamiro PinillaSergio PitolEvelio RoseroAlberto Ruy SanchezEsther TusquetsHebe UhartMario Vargas LlosaAurora VenturiniEnrique VilaMatas
