Post-Boom Latin American literature
Post-Boom Latin American literature refers to the literary movement that emerged after the influential Boom period of the 1960s and 1970s, which was characterized by innovative storytelling and global recognition of authors like Gabriel García Márquez. Post-Boom writers tend to focus on more personal, realistic, and diverse narratives, often exploring social issues, identity, and regional experiences with a flexible and accessible style. This shift reflects a move away from the experimental techniques of the Boom, venturing into stories that resonate on both local and universal levels, emphasizing authenticity and the complexities of everyday life.
