ficciones diaspóricas: identidad y participación en los blogs de tres desterradas venezolanas / diasporic fictions: identity and participation in three blogs by exiled venezuelan women
The narrative of exile plays now a significant role in contemporary Venezuelan literature. As diaspora spreads the notion of homeland has been modified and extended. Part of this discursive reconstruction appears in texts that point to a new type of narrative of identity in which different forms of attachment to the global community are produced. Studying texts from Mirtha
Rivero, Liliana Lara and Leila Macor, this article explores the
ways in which some Venezuelan female writers living abroad
construct the experience of uprooting sharing their thoughts
in blogs and web portals, reformulating inherited notions
of belonging.
