HENAO, Simón  and  DELGADO, Alba. WRITING FROM BEHIND: PERMANENCE AND DURATION IN ELÁSTICO DE SOMBRA, BY JUAN CÁRDENAS. Linguist.lit. [online]. 2021, n.79, pp.418-436.  Epub Nov 22, 2022. ISSN 0120-5587.  https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.lyl.n79a23.

This paper explores the links between imagination and resistance of the black resistance in northern Cauca. To do this, it takes Elástico de sombra, a novel by Juan Cárdenas (2019), that allows researchers to investigate how imagination bursts into the symmetry of the hegemonic discoursein order to expose its counterpart through the action of writing «from behind». The main hypothesis points out that Cárdenas’s narrative configures a writing in resistance that makes it resistance intelligible -that is, it designates a specific place within the order of language to resistance-, showing its permanence in time and its permanence in territory.

Keywords : Colombian narrative; 21st century; blackness; resistance.
