LIRISMO, AUTOBIOGRAFÍA Y AUTOFICCIÓN EN VIAJE OLVIDADO, DE SILVINA OCAMPO.

Viaje Olvidado, a story book of Silvina Ocampo, is noted forenest for its lyrical rather than its anecdotal or argumentative content. It consists of a series of watercolour pictures which constitutes only a basis for poetic discourse. This entails the use of colloquial language and pictorial prose. The particular use of language and the leitmotifs to be recurrently found in the narration give rise to text-type that can be classed within aotobiographical or autofictional boundaries. Even though Viaje Olvidado is not expressly an autobiographical piece, we suggest that the liricism in the stories is a "vague" open window on the author's biography. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
