Are Argentines deserving of their literary reputation, or do they have that reputation only because the rest of Latin America is shit?

With the exception of Borges (debatable) Argentina has no discernible talent

Latin America has great literature, and it is beating both Spain and Portugal for quite some time now.

You don’t have even read anything of that part of the world and yet somehow find yourself in the position to call a lot of material “shit”.

You have not answered the question. I would like to know what you look for in a book, what makes a book great in your opinion. It is not an unjust question, for you are criticizing a very respected and celebrated writer, so I guess you might explain us why you don’t like him.

And I have not even made a more serious question: what writers do you consider great?

How do you know? you have not read them.
