Is it possible to define fiction? What is the relationship between fiction and real events? Or better, what is the presence of fiction in our daily lives? Throughout this course, students will engage in a deep study of literary techniques by immersing into contemporary Latin American texts whose focus is on the creative writing process. By close-reading avariety of genres, students will develop a better understanding of narrating and storytelling. This course will have a creative writing component.
