She introduced writers such as Jorge Luis Borges, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Mario Vargas Llosa, and others to the international scene. She is undoubtedly the discoverer par excellence of great Latin American literature. The New York Times dedicated an obituary to Franco following her death in December 2022.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eFurthermore, she highlights her importance in the academic world: professor emeritus of comparative Latin American literature at Columbia University; professor at several universities in Great Britain and the United States; a pioneer of feminism in Latin America and its incorporation into the main concerns of universal academic thought. She is the author of several books on this and other topics.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThrough extensive dialogues with Franco, the author reveals reflections on her life and feelings: her family background, love and motherhood, old age, feminism, academia, and language as a tool for emerging movements to transform the established order.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe author offers a profound reflection on the power of interpretation, its presence in several of Franco's books, and its influence on his life.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eConsidered the first book in English to address Franco's work and legacy, it is essential for all scholars of Latin American literature and the broader fields of feminism and the humanities.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eBiography\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAuthor(s):\u003c\/span\u003e \n\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMagdalena Mayorga is a retired teacher at Central University of Ecuador.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5 class=\"p1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eReviews\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis title is currently being reviewed.
