| Body |
In honor of Hispanic Heritage Month, The Library of Congress launched an online selection of recordings from its "Archive of Hispanic Literature on Tape," a series of over 700 audio recordings from renowned poets and prose writers in their native languages. 32 different countries are represented in the 50 new digitized recordings that were previously only available on site at the library. "I am so excited that the entire world will be able to hear some of these wonderful writers, such as Gabriel García Márquez and Octavio Paz, that we recorded for the Archive of Hispanic Literature on Tape," said in a statement Georgette Dorn, chief of the Library's Hispanic Division and curator of the archive. "Hearing the voice of a writer -brings him or her alive."
