Book on Hispanic Culture

[carcan]

Hi yall.
A newbie here. I'm looking for suggestions of books on hispanic culture i.e SPANISH AND LATIN AMERICAN culture together in one book. Those I've been finding for the meantime are either on spanish culture OR American culture. I need both together in a book.
I'd greatly appreciate any help.
Thanks

Latin America is enormous and varied culturally. Because it's so big, I would recommend studying the individual history of a country that interests you. Then reading some fiction from that country and listening to the music and looking at the art. Some countries have the advantage of have a great author or two. Colombia has the advantage of being the home of Gabriel García Márques. His best novels give everyone insight into the culture of Caribbean Colombia and neighboring regions. Reading
"100 Years of Solitude" or "Of Love and other Demons" are nice ways of getting to know the region.
