| description | The study focuses on the production of three authors, the Uruguayan Mario Levrero (La novela luminosa, 2005), the Puerto Rican Eduardo Lalo (Países invisibles, 2008), and the Cuban Leonardo Padura (El hombre que amaba los perros, 2009). Aside from their temporal closeness, the works also share an apparent “unclassifiability” that results from their imprecise generic condition and use of a complex and ambiguous narrative voice. The study analyzes strategies of “autofiction,” or representations of the “I” (also called “fictions of the author” or “autobiographical simulacra”) and emotions in three very different works. The first two texts, centered on trivial and insignificant quotidian details, do not initially appear to be political narrative, but rather seem to privilege aesthetic concerns. Padura’s novel is clearly a political text, if not also biographical-historical. All three, however, record the disillusion and disenchantment to result from the disappearance of the twentieth century’s social and political utopias. |
