Mayra Santos Febres‘ Cualquier miércoles soy tuya: in search of a literary tradition

Abstract

This article places Cualquier miércoles soy tuya within the tradition of the artist's novel and studies the transformations it introduces in relation to the Romantic, Modernist and Avantgarde models. In Mayra Santos Febres' text, the revision of the traditional form of the artist's novel takes place through the structural innovations but, moreover, is imbedded in the philosophical theme that characterizes this type of narrative, that is, the elucidation of the writer's role and his art in the society he belongs to.
