Espacios Imaginarios
 art and literature exhibition


Espacios Imaginarios is a collection of myths that brings together eight Caribbean writers to explore the possibilities of literature. Through the scriptural experience offered by the imagination, each author uses his own stylistic resources to situate the reader in other lives and other spaces. This volume defies the natural format of the prologue to give an experimental and intellectual meaning to the reading and its structure.

Espacios Imaginarios was exhibited at La Casa del Cuento en Cayey with th support of the David M. Einhorn Center for the Community Engagement (as part of the Community Engaged Leadership Program).
