Abstract
SANCHEZ IDIART, Cecilia. THE FACTORY OF FICTION. LIFE, WORK AND WRITING IN ERA EL CIELO AND EL ESCRITOR COMIDO BY SERGIO BIZZIO. Linguist.lit. [online]. 2019, n.75, pp.62-77. ISSN 0120-5587. https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.lyl.n75a03.
Through the exploration of the contemporary imbrications between life and capital, the novels Era el cielo (2007) and El escritor comido (2010), by the Argentine Sergio Bizzio, problematize specifically the work of the writer and interrogate, at the same time, the limits of literature and the conditions of its production and circulation in the present. By means of an ethics of failure and of the procedure of estrangement, these fictions also imagine possibilities of life and writing that do not submit to the dictates of the market and its imperative to succeed.
Keywords : Work; Life; Writing; Contemporary Latin American Literature; Sergio Bizzio.
