		Their novels are virtually forgotten in Latin America except for the scholars of the 1970s and 1980s who resuscitated some of these works, as well as by postmodern Latin American novelists of the 1970s and 1980s, such as Diamela Eltit and Ricardo Piglia, who felt an aesthetic alliance with these frequently marginalized writers.
		The main structuring device for this novel is memory and, consequently, it is a fragmented novel that follows the illogical pattern of the associative process involved in memory.
		These novels place into practice, in different ways, Morelli's radical proposals in Rayuela for the "anti-novel," the description of which is quite similar to many of the theoretical propositions developed a decade later by Hassan, Hutcheon, and other theorists of the postmodern novel.

		The comic novel, that is, the novel as a mask of the man who has gotten lost in his contradictions and continually falls into traps of his choosing, is for Marechal a pre-conceived form, while for Juan Emar it was a way of living day to day which never stopped surprising him.
		It cannot be said that Marechal breaks open the novel, nor that he puts it into reverse (as happens in "Ayer"), but, instead, he converts it into mobile images of a satire and a romantic epic (cf.
		"Paradiso" is an open novel in the sense in which a ball is open, that is, on the outside, floating in the universe that creates the words that sound, prolong themselves and remain in the man as things of a useless and beautiful time.

	glbtq >> literature >> Lezama Lima, José
		Until the publication of his novel Paradiso (1966), which brought him instant international fame and notoriety, Lezama was primarily known as a poet.
		However, the novel's total lack of political commitment to the Cuban Revolution, as well as its explicit descriptions of male homosexual relations, was met with resistance in Cuba and placed Lezama in a precarious situation.
		Lezama's novel is a work of pure aestheticism in which the richness of language is the true protagonist.

	Paradiso
		was first published in Cuba in 1966 and quickly hailed as a masterpiece by writers such as Julio Cortázar and Mario Vargas Llosa.
		It is the story of José Cemí, who, in the wake of his father's premature death, comes of age in turn-of-the-century Cuba, "an island paradise where magic and philosophy twist the lives of the old Cuban bourgeoisie into extravagant wonderful shapes" (Washington Post).
		Baldovina started back to the boy, hoping that meanwhile someone had carried off his small body with which for some mysterious reason she had been burdened, forcing her to babble explanations and be extremely solicitous; at any given moment his welts and asthma might intensify and fill her with terror.

	Dalkey Archive Press: Jose Lezama Lima (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		A classic of modern literature, Paradiso was first published in Cuba in 1966 and quickly hailed as a masterpiece by such eminent writers as Julio Cortazar and Mario Vargas Llosa.
		Weaving the exhilarations and defeats of love into extraordinarily erotic verbal tapestries, Lezama Lima narrates Cemi's search for his dead father and for the understanding of love and the powers of the mind.
		Both an archetype and a cosmos of Cuban society, Paradiso is as perceptive and psychologically intricate as Proust's view of France, and as vigorous and sometimes corroded as Faulkner's Yoknapatawpha County.

		His last novel, Cae la noche tropical (1988; Tropical Night Falling), although superficially dealing with marginalized older women, may be read as a homoerotic text where gender roles have yet to be carefully distributed.
		The same is also true of novels by Mexico's José Joaquín Blanco, the narrative essays by Brazil's Glauco Mattoso (one of which also has a comic book version), and the social anthropological narratives of Néstor Perlongher, an Argentine working in Brazil.
		Similarly, criticism on José Lezama Lima's dense novel Paradiso (1966) has been unable to decide definitively as to the presence of homoeroticism in the text, a question whose interest is compounded by the fact that the novel was published in Cuba at a time when those accused of homosexuality suffered draconian persecutions.

		Not unexpectedly, the swell of Dantean publications relating to the centennial year continued into 1966, when, for example, some commemorative lectures made their delayed appearance in print.
		Here, the author stresses that, unlike the stasis of the Inferno and Paradiso, the Purgatorio is a place of kinesis, temporal like the world of tenos (condition of man awaiting death) or prokope, and therefore Dante can most easily identify with the souls there.

		While the novel is not Carpentier’s autobiography, it does represent its representation.
		According to Sally Harvey and Roberto González Echevarría, novels like El arpa y la sombra are symbolic acts of contrition in which Carpentier confesses his Aoriginal sin@ of never having been an authentic revolutionary.
		Carpentier=s novels, as González Echevarría observes, meditate the possibilities of return and, in this regard, insularity/recogimiento posits an impossible recovery of a lost object or space that is associated with the self; and instrumentality/dispersion posits a turning away from the intervening symbolic father.
