In this 1977 interview for Spanish television, host Joaquin Soler Serrano talks with Mexican writer, Carlos Fuentes, who shares his thoughtful ideas about the impact of the Spanish Conquest on the history of Latin America, missed opportunities for democracy, the cultural gift of Spanish emigrants after the Civil War, and the fate of socialism under the Soviet Union. Fuentes discourses on language, English literature and Latin American writers, and discusses his literary productions to date, including "The Death of Artemio Cruz," "Aura" and his latest novel, "Terra Nostra"
