About the Book

How African immigrants represent themselves and are represented in contemporary Spanish texts is the subject of this interdisciplinary collection. Analyzing novels, poetry, films, online forums, and other genres, the contributors shed light on Spain’s racial and sexual boundaries and the appeal of images of Africa in the contemporary marketplace. The collection is a convincing reminder that cultural texts provide a mirror into the perceptions of society during times of change.
