Coles El arte de irse por las ramas: La digresión en la novela latinoamericana contemporánea at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON

This book carries out the first study of digression in contemporary Latin American literature. The book approaches the reflexive and political potentials of digression as discursive strategy by way of close readings of four novels by some of Latin America’s most outstanding contemporary writers: Roberto Bolaño’s Estrella distante (Chile, 1996), Guillermo Fadanelli’s Lodo (Mexico, 2002), Mario Levrero’s La novela luminosa (Uruguay, 2005), and Alan Pauls’ Historia del llanto (Argentina, 2007). In this way, the book attempts to account for the different ways in which Latin American literature revitalizes the tradition of the digressive novel in a postmodern context.
