Voces Americanas: Latino Literature in the United States is a celebratory survey of works by Latinos that introduces over three decades of literary renaissance by highlighting the experience of Spanish-speaking peoples through images of authors, books, movie stills, public presentations and illustrations. It is based on an original exhibition at the University of Houston Library that documented a quarter-century of Hispanic publishing in the United States. This exhibit will be on display at the Southlake Public Library from September 7 – 30. The Southlake Public Library Hours are 10 a.m. – 8 p.m. Monday – Thursday, 10 a.m.- 6 p.m. Friday and Saturday and closed Sunday. Image credit: Barbacoa para Cumpleaños, by Carmen Lomas Garza, 1993.
