- Title
La breve agonia de Artemio Cruz: a propósito del tiempo narrativo en La muerte de Artemio Cruz de Carlos Fuentes.
- Authors
Hussar, James
- Abstract
The article presents a literary criticism of the 20th century Mexican novel "La muerte de Artemio Cruz," written by Carlos Fuentes. The critique focuses on Fuentes' use of time throughout the narration of the story, and discusses the complete lack of temporal markers throughout the book, as well as the deceitful nature of the narrator and Fuentes' use of flash backs to blur the lines between reality and imagination and keep the reader from establishing any accurate sense of time passing throughout the novel.
