The Mondo series is a set of four pop culture anthologies published in the 1990s. Each volume focuses on a different American icon: Mondo Barbie (1993), Mondo Elvis (1994), Mondo Marilyn (1995), and Mondo James Dean (1996). The books collect stories, essays, and poems by multiple authors, using these cultural figures as springboards for fiction and commentary.
Sandra Cisneros contributed to Mondo Barbie. The series as a whole is a product of its era, blending literary fiction with pop culture in a way that was common in the 1990s anthology market.
