Postmodernity in Spanish Fiction and Culture
Postmodernity in Spanish Fiction and Culture presents Spain as one of the most postmodern of all European nations and argues that certain exclusive social and cultural experiences in Spain such as immigration, globalization, and terrorism are not only patently Spanish but also that in their totality, they constitute a powerful postmodern current in Spain.
