Abstract

This paper analyzes the image of the city in Mario Levrero’s narrative, mainly characterized by hostility, which comes from external factors (appearance, architectural configuration...) and the relationships established within, that give rise to tensions and fears, conflicts, violence, etc. Despite the changes in his texts throughout his career, hostility remains as an inherent feature of urban space.
