Eduardo Mendoza: a new lookJeffrey Thomas Oxford, David John Knutson This critical anthology on the novels and other work of Eduardo Mendoza is the very first collection of scholarly essays to be published solely on this Spanish novelist. With contributions by academics from Spain and the United States, this book touches upon each of Mendoza's major publications from 1975 to date. The essays assume a varied array of critical positions and practices, often reaching strikingly different conclusions about the same texts.
