Abstract

I write about the novel Reina de América in the first person, in self-chosen exile, which turns out to be the most comfortable way to think about Colombia. And it is that, how to think the organic violence of this nation in conflict for more than five decades if it is not from the paradox of a first person who is simultaneously an outsider? My interest is not to make a formal critique of the use of the first person in Amethyst prose, nor is it an exhaustive analysis of the representation of the armed conflict in the novel. My intention is to establish a dialogical space between the Amatian literary construction of violence in the Colombian Pacific and the social and historical characteristics of the conflict in this region.
