Description

Ron Arias is the author of the foundational Chicano novel The Road to Tamazunchale (1975), published during the Mexican American literary movement of the 1970s. Arias was one of the first to use Magic Realism and to connect U.S. Latino literature to Latin American writers of the Boom generation (e.g., Carlos Fuentes, Julio Cortázar, Mario Vargas Llosa, to name a few).

The lecture includes a Q&A and a booksigning with copies sold by the University Bookstore staff after the presentation.
