Abstract
This work analyzes the perspectives offered by the novels The Lost Steps by Alejo Carpentier and An Old Man Who Read Love Stories by Luis Sepúlveda regarding the primitive natural world of the Amazon rainforest, the points of convergence or divergence between both visions and the configuration of a dichotomy between nature and civilization. This analysis explores the space of the jungle in both novels as a vital, indomitable, timeless and indefinable entity, where adventure, danger and beauty reign.
