Portrait of the author like postmodern subject and writer autoficcional in "Cómo me hice monja" by César Aira

Abstract

Following Manuel Alberca's theoretical offer concerning the narrative autoficcional, this article analyzes César Aira’s novel Como me hice monja. The text there constructs a personage who sends to some autobiographical experiences of the author, not to appear to yes same as man, but to represent his character as writer: autofiction of the writer of novel and of the act of writing like clown of the act of living.
