These writers started to publish at the begging of 21th century; by contrast, the academic production about them is still raising. For that reason, it is necessary to pay attention to these voices that, little by little, step up in Central American literature.

After a theorization about love and its transformations in the History, it presents a brief contextualization about the present in Central American Literature and a state of the art about the critical reception of the writers. Lastly, the article presents the analyzes of each short stories, based on several tool provided by structuralism (like narrator voice, characters, narrative levels) and by semiotic.
