Английская Википедия:Edward Rivera
Шаблон:Short description Edward Rivera (1944-2001) was an American writer, educator and editor with Puerto-Rican roots (Nuyorican). Born in Puerto Rico, from age 7[1] Rivera grew up in New York.[2] He was a mentor to writers Abraham Rodríguez and Ernesto Quiñonez.[1][3][4]
Career
Rivera's only major work, the novel Family Installments: Memories of Growing up Hispanic, reportedly took ten years to write.[2] Facing attempts at fetishization of the Nuyorican experience,Шаблон:Unclear inline it took three years for Family Installments to be published.[2][5] The novel utilizes many stylistic tools, from flashbacks to a mix of oral and official histories.[6] Rivera famously looked to Mark Twain as an influence, and the novel indicates this, creating an intertextual conversation.[7] Though Rivera insisted that Family Installments was a novel, many critics found it to be heavily influenced by Rivera's life.[7]
