Descripción: | Non-consumable literature by Cristina Rivera Garza appears in her novel La cresta de llián (2002), which takes inspiration from the similarly non-consumable literature of short story writer Amparo Dávila. The term "non-consumable" intends to describe a text that resists readers' memory and mastery; the text denies assimilation or easy "digestion.' Within the critical exploration of literature resistant to reading, the present article contemplates the discourse regarding the power of language that Rivera Garza constructs through her predecessor's texts. At the end of the analysis, the theme of official history as a fixed and easily digested literature surfaces through use of Juan Escutia in the novel as extant only through other texts. In this way, Rivera Garza demonstrates that official literature prefers to speak from a dead center. As a result, the literary margins where Rivera Garza and Dávila operate connote texts that are more alive, though perhaps more forgettable, among the Mexican literary landscape. |
