From Porcupines to Monades: Integrative Structure and Themes in Los lemmings y otros from Fabián Casas

A collection of “open” stories and the inclusion of pop culture references are already recurring in Fabián Casas’ work, but, as it will be underscored, in this particular volume they are not only at the service of a “return to childhood”, as some critics state, but they will also be a distinctive sample of a major literary project, where the generic boundaries from poetry, essay and narrative will be more and more diffuse for reasons that are particular to his expansive way of creation. Este trabajo propone un análisis del libro Los lemmings y otros (2005), del escritor Fabián Casas, tanto de su estructura —empleando la teoría de los “relatos integrados” (2012), del crítico José Sánchez Carbó— como de las temáticas del volumen —que van desde la utilización de específicos motivos literarios hasta una personal mixtura entre la alta cultura y la cultura de masas—. Como se verá, dichos elementos resultan funcionales en tanto hilos conductores de las diez piezas que componen la obra. Una colección de relatos “abiertos” y la inserción de referentes de la cultura popular son ya recurrentes en la obra de Casas; pero, como se argumentará, en este volumen no solo estarán al servicio de un “retorno a la infancia”, como otros críticos aseguran, sino que serán muestra distintiva de un proyecto literario mayor, donde las fronteras genéricas de poesía, ensayo y narrativa se volverán cada vez más difusas por razones que responden a su expansiva forma de creación.
