I’d like to branch off from the old school of Russians and Europeans I’ve been so devoted to, and give latin american literature a try. Can you suggest anything?

Steven King, or Edgar Allen Poe.

I would like to renew my acquaintance with Latin American or Spanish literature.

I’d like some thing that incorporates the elements of magic and fantasy, such as I think does Gabriel Garcia Marquez.
Seems I recall Borges having written some short stories in the horror genre. Does any one know or remember of any in particular?
