Since the 1980s, contemporary Latino literature has an abundance of self-reflexive, metafictional works, including novels and short stories by Junot Díaz (The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao),[4] Giannina Braschi (Empire of Dreams, Yo-Yo Boing!),[5] Sandra Cisneros (Caramelo),[6] Salvador Plascencia (The People of Paper),[7] Carmen Maria Machado (Her Body),[8] Rita Indiana (Tentacle),[9] and Valeria Luiselli (Lost Children Archive).[7]	./cache/en-wikipedia-org-7493.html	./txt/en-wikipedia-org-7493.txt
