In this first comprehensive critical examination of the works of the distinguished New Mexican man of letters, an international group of scholars considers Ulibarr?'s fiction, prose, and poetry. An introduction by Luis Leal outlines the major themes of Ulibarr?'s work: the recovery of an idyllic past and the use of traditional mythic images in a realistic context. An interview conducted by Mar?a Duke dos Santos, presented in Spanish and English, covers the development of his literary career. Mar?a Herrera-Sobek, Gene Steven Forrest, Wolfgang Karrer, and Arnulfo G. Ram?rez look at various aspects of the short stories. Bruce-Novoa, Patricia de la Fuente, and Santiago Dayd?-Tolson discuss the poetry. James J. Champion compares Ulibarr?'s formal use of language with Latin American and peninsular writers. Francisco A. Lomel? provides one of the first examinations of Ulibarr?'s essays. In addition to these insightful critical essays, the volume includes an appendix with six previously unpublished works by Ulibarr?—four poems, a short story, and an essay—and an annotated bibliography of his complete works by Theresa M?rquez. A useful book for scholars of Chicano and American literature and those presenting Ulibarr?'s works to students.
