“Latin American Neo-Baroque: Senses of Distortion is more than a guide to understanding the Baroque and Neo-Baroque. It is an interdisciplinary text that offers the multifaceted perspectives to which it alludes. The creative and cogent readings of both visual and literary works construct a convincing paradigm. Pablo Baler makes a significant contribution to the study of the Neo- Baroque, and this book should be included in the library holdings as a reference for scholars.” (Dinora Cardoso,Hispania, Vol. 101 (1), March, 2018)
