| Sumario: | This article investigates the imbrications and porosities between fiction and nonfiction in Latin America. It analyzes a two-way textual process in which writers working for newspapers included styles and characteristics of literature in their journalistic texts as they simultaneously created works of fiction that were based on or influenced by their journalism. This discursive dialogism occurs in a space herein called the «narrative room». Deeply rooted in Latin American literary tradition, this phenomenon has produced texts with different degrees of hybridity that blur the boundaries between Latin American literature and journalism. |
