La transgresión genérica, emblema de la obra de Javier Marí­as, Enrique Vila-Matas e Ignacio Padilla

Abstract

Nowadays, the genres are not as delimited as they use to be. In Javier Marias and Enrique Vila-Matas's novels, there is continuous reflection on the role of the author, as well as on life and literature (autobiography, essay and fiction). Padilla, a member of the group of ?Mexican Crack?, chooses both Spaniers as models. In both novels Amphitryon or Espiral de artillerí­a there are commons traits with the novels of Marí­as and Vila-Matas. In this paper my aim is to analyse the relationship between Padilla and these Spanish writers work
