/lit/, what's your opinion of this book? I read that Isabelle Allende gets alotta bad rep for apparently ripping off Marquez. Is this criticism justified? Is it still a good read?

>> No.2112715

Nothing written by a latin american woman is a "good read." It's all the same trite bullshit about their conservative Catholic mothers that can't assimilate into American culture, and their "rich" cultural heritage which amounts to nothing more than just eating tortillas and beans with fucking everything.

This is a spic speaking, by the way. Fuck that shit.

She's in Cali now just fyi. He's obviously too macheezmo to bother with her no matter her current or original status. Probably the same thing with the "apparently ripping off Marquez" appraisal

What exactly do you think Latin American means?

Obviously there's Latin-American that's in a "Latin-America" sense, but this obviously isn't a Latin-American book in the sense that anon meant it, being about assimilating into American culture.
