DESMONUMENTALIZAR LA MEMORIA: UNA CRÍTICA DE LAS REPRESENTACIONES DE LA VIOLENCIA EN EL OLVIDO QUE SEREMOS.

The aim of this paper is to make a critical analysis of the novel El olvido que seremos by Héctor Abad Faciolince. After its publication in 2006, this novel quickly became a bestseller of memory in Colombia for the testimonial value of the narration and for the editorial platform that supported it. However, a critical approximation shows that this novel is articulated like a classist, heteropatriarchal, and hegemonic representation of memory. In this sense, the purpose of this work is to analyze the textual and intertextual mechanisms that configure this memory modulation in order to open a discussion that allows not only to make visible more inclusive memories but also to avoid the institutionalization of some memories and the consequent invisibilization of diverse subjectivities and violence.
