- Title
Variaciones del humor y el terror en Su turno (1976), de Alberto Laiseca.
- Authors
Bonini, Marcelo
- Abstract
This writing will deal with the links between terror and humor in Alberto Laiseca’s first novel, Su turno, published for the first time in 1976. Previous to the analysis of the the novel, I establish what will be understood by “terror” and which by “humor”. The central hypothesis is that this novel oscilates between terror and humor through the use of hyperbole. Despite the fact that some scenes and topics seem to refer to state and parastatal violence in the early 1970s, Su turno is far from being a novel of a realistic nature or denunciation.
