Beyond hybridity: the city ch’ixi of Juan Pablo

Abstract

The city of La Paz shows its plentiful face in the festival of Great Power, represented by Juan Pablo Piñeiro in the novel Cuando Sara Chura despierte (2003). This is a nonsensical narrative that reconstructs the city in mixed forms, looking to the contemporary in which the Western and Andean are transformed. The story is organized as an extraordinary tissue in which past and present, Spanish and Aymara, gather each other to dream with the end of inequality, embodied in the party.

Key-words:
bolivian literature; Juan Pablo Piñeiro; hybridity
