Descrizione:This study analyzes the aesthetic proposal of one of the least known novels about the Guatemalan genocide: El Árbol de Adán (Adam’s Tree). It explores the fictional works of Gerardo Guinea Diez, and addresses the author’s poetic style, to emphasize the discrepancies between his work and that of the so-called “post-war school of Central American literature” and the predominant model supported by historians. The article reveals these other imaginary worlds created from within the Central American countries, but which often contrast with widespread perceptions of those who are outside the region.
