La niña que Yáñez nos muestra en las páginas de su libro no es como las que bailan en las rondas de Gabriela Mistral, que se dejan llevar por la locura del baile hasta despegarse del suelo; el desvarío de la ronda hace que las niñas dejen de ser invisibles, como se aprecia en los poemas de Mistral, en que los corros de niñas son observados a la distancia por madres y padres; no pueden evitarlo, esas rondas brillan y remecen el suelo.

What distinguishes fiction from ordinary experience is not a lack of reality but a surfeit of rationality – this was the thesis of Aristotle’s Poetics. The rationality of fiction is that appearances are inverted. Fiction overturns the ordinary course of events that occur one after the other, aiming to show how the unexpected arises, happiness transforms into unhappiness and ignorance into knowledge. In the modern age, argues Rancière, this fictional rationality was developed in new ways. The...
