La novela popular y "2666" (2004) de Roberto Bolaño

En estas líneas se demuestra que “De la parte de Archimboldi”, un capítulo de 2666 (2004) de Roberto Bolaño (1947–2000), se puede unir con la corriente de novelas populares de corte realista que comenzó en la segunda mitad del siglo XIX. La novela posmoderna une en sí elementos populares y elementos pertenecientes a una cultura minoritaria, pero hace falta analizar ejemplos concretos de obras recientes que lo confirmen. Al encontrar los elementos populares que distinguen a 2666 (2004), contribuimos a estudiar la novela hispanoamericana actual siguiendo los pasos de investigadores como Vance R. Holloway y Gonzalo Navajas. El texto muestra cómo Roberto Bolaño toma rasgos de la novela popular pero utiliza sus códigos narrativos de un modo irónico y nuevo.
