Abstract
SORRENTINO, Florencia Lila. Instantáneas: la lectura en los tiempos que corren. Cuad. Cent. Estud. Diseñ. Comun., Ensayos [online]. 2019, n.72, pp.57-68. ISSN 1853-3523. http://dx.doi.org/10.18682/cdc.vi72.1102.
The current perception of the fleetingness of time affects the ways of reading and writing, the way we communicate and the circulation of information. In this context, literature and, specifically, the writing of snapshots make up a contemporary genre that has as its proposal the impact through words. These writings establish a dialogue with photography as they reproduce a moment that, as artistic works, exhibit images (in words) giving multiplicity of meanings. In the following essay we will recognize some of the characteristics of this new genre from the analysis of different works of Argentine authors like Silvia Molloy, Mariana Enriquez and Selva Almada.
