Mapping British Latinx Writing.
There are an estimated quarter of a million Latin Americans living in the UK, yet they remain outside the British national imaginary. This invisibility has historically extended to the literary scene and publishing industry, with only very few British‐based Latin American and Latinx writers gaining...

I also propose some of the shared themes and aesthetics of an emergent British Latinx canon. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Bulletin of Latin American Research is the property of Wiley-Blackwell and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
