Dream Nation

Puerto Rican Culture and the Fictions of Independence

Beschreibung

Over the past fifty years, Puerto Rican voters have roundly rejected any calls for national independence. Yet the rhetoric and iconography of independence have been defining features of Puerto Rican literature and culture. In this provocative new book, María Acosta Cruz investigates the roots and effects of this profound disconnect between cultural fantasy and political reality.
