Abstract

ARDILA J, Clemencia. Metafiction and crime in three Colombians novel. Co-herencia [online]. 2012, vol.9, n.17, pp.115-130. ISSN 1794-5887.

This paper aims at studying a new type of novels characterized by the simultaneous presence of the meta-fiction and the black genre. Such novels can be read as the history of a crime, or as narration of literature itself, of the creative process of configuration of a fictional world. In order to demonstrate what could be considered the emergence of a new trend in Latin-American literature, three novels, by Darío Jaramillo Agudelo and Nahum Montt, will be analyzed.

Keywords : Black novel; meta-fictional novel; Colombian novel; self-reference; self-conscious.
