Reviews for A Companion to Juan Rulfo (Monografias a)
This is a rich, clear, insightful study of celebrated Mexican writer/photographer Juan Rulfo. (...) In analyzing Rulfo's life and artistic production, the author turns over every stone. Rulfo has been the subject of a great deal of scholarly interest, and Boldy draws on major analyses/perspectives offered by others and on biographical treatments and dozens of interviews. CHOICE
