Writing from a Marginal Perspective
Iosi Havilos’ Narrative
Abstract
The aim of this article is to critically read Iosi Havilio’s books demonstrating how contemporary Argentinian literature offers a gaze from the suburbs. The author explores, from a marginal perspective, contemporary society and the relationship between centre and periphery. In the novel Paraísos we can identify some central issues by this author that can be linked to new Argentinian literature.
