Abstract

This article analyses three novels of Colombian contemporary authors: Juan Cárdenas, Margarita García Robayo and Juan Álvarez. Through the analysis of some characteristics of the novels Los estratos, Lo que no aprendí and La ruidosa marcha de los mudos, the article explores the link between what we call representation, in the sense of some recognizable social and historical referents, and what we identify as experimentation, e. g. formal and singular procedures of each novel. We suggest that this tension allows us to think in a different way discourses about those same recognizable referents of Colombian history and contemporary context.
