La region mas transparente[edit]

I added the paragraph about this novel, because in my opinion (and many others smarter and better educated than me) sets a landmark not only because it is Fuentes' first novel, but because it is a novel that goes in the same line that "Los olvidados" from Buñuel went.... a rough critique to mexican society and a depiction of what this complex world is.

ps beo ke fue un gtran artista mexicano fue por que ahora es leyenda

Small detail[edit]

Is "homosexual activist" really an occupation? I would think it's a hobby/interest/belief. Or maybe a characteristic, hard to explain.

Copyright problem[edit]

This article has been reverted by a bot to this version as part of a large-scale clean-up project of multiple article copyright infringement. (See the investigation subpage) This has been done to remove User:Accotink2's contributions as they have a history of extensive copyright violation and so it is assumed that all of their major contributions are copyright violations.

El Espejo Enterrado[edit]

Besides this being an essay, it was also the basis for a series of videos done twice, once in Spanish and once in English. These videos are phenomenal and I made great use of them in teaching civilization and culture. Watching them just reminds one of what was always so appealing about Fuentes. I had no idea he might be dying and recently, in light of the violence in Mexico, I had hoped he would appear in an interview somewhere and give his take on it all. I always valued his ability to reassure and I will miss him.Godofredo29 (talk) 00:02, 16 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Awards[edit]

We need a section on awards. The Cervantes Prize isn't mentioned for one example. Rmhermen (talk) 04:14, 16 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Bibliography[edit]

I've moved this lengthy "further reading" list from the article to here. A quick glance at the articles on other major authors suggests to me that such a section isn't standard or practical. Khazar2 (talk)

I agree it was too big. We'll include the ones we actually use to write the article. I am also happy that you are expanding it - it really deserves a heavy expansion.·ʍaunus·snunɐw· 18:58, 17 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I agree! I'm hoping to spend the rest of the afternoon gradually expanding from the obituaries. Tomorrow I may also poke around on JSTOR, etc. to get some scholarly perspective on the major works. Khazar2 (talk) 19:04, 17 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
