Space as a crucial concept in Los ingrávidos by Valeria Luiselli : Thecreation of a phantom atmosphere by the representation of spaces (English)
Abstract [es]

Proponemos con esta tesina investigar cómo el uso experimental del espacio en la novela Los ingrávidos de la escritora mexicana Valeria Luiselli es crucial para crear el ambiente fragmentado y fantasmal de la obra. Las dos voces de la novela, Owen y la narradora, relatan fragmentos de sus vidas de muy diferentes épocas. Mueren y vuelven a nacer. Aparecen como fantasmas y el tiempo no es lineal. Sin embargo, sus vidas e historias se unen por medio de espacios compartidos. En la presente tesina analizamos y ponemos en evidencia cómo la autora mediante esta técnica del uso del espacio logra conectar mundos y vidas en una atmósfera de irrealidad. Hemos llegado a la conclusión que el ambiente fragmentado y fantasmal de la novela Los ingrávidos es logrado mediante el manejo del espacio.

Abstract [en]

With this thesis we intend to investigate how the experimental use of space in the novel Losingrávidos by the Mexican writer Valeria Luiselli is crucial to create the fragmented and ghostlyatmosphere of the book. The two voices of the novel, Owen and the female narrator, relatefragments of their lives from very different eras. They die and are reborn. They reappear asghosts and time is not linear. However, their lives and stories come together through sharedspaces. In this thesis we analyze and highlight how the author through this technique of the useof space manages to connect their worlds and lives in an atmosphere of unreality. We haveconcluded that the fragmented and ghostly atmosphere of the novel Los ingrávidos is achievedthrough the management of space.
