Ciudades Y Mundos Posibles: Distopia Y Estados de Control En La Novela Hispanoamericana Contemporanea
Luis Mora-Ballesteros
A critical examination of Latin American urban novels from the 2000s highlights a growing trend to view the present and depict the future in a negative and destructive light. This book studies 10 fictions that bring together transgressive, violent, prospective, and sociopolitical aesthetics: Piedras encantadas (2001), by Rodrigo Rey Rosa (Guatemala); Angosta (2003), by Hector Abad (Colombia); El cerco de Bogota (2003), by Santiago Gamboa (Colombia); Insensatez (2004), by Horacio Castellanos (Honduras); Nocturama (2006), by Ana Torres (Venezuela); Averno (2006), by Gabriel Jimenez (Venezuela); La ultima vez (2007), by Hector Bujanda (Venezuela); El sueno de Mariana (2008), by Jorge Galan (El Salvador); El cielo llora por mi (2008), by Sergio Ramirez (Nicaragua), and Bajo tierra 2008), by Gustavo Valle (Venezuela). The analysis of the corpus allows us to identify the thematic evolution of the violent city, the infernal city, the dystopian city, the post-revolutionary city and the algorithmic city, as well as their corresponding forms and writing strategies, which could constitute the articulation of some possible worlds.
