Radicantes en una ciudad de culto. Personajes de Jorge Enrique Lage

In this text I propose to characterize the way in which the Cuban writer Jorge Enrique Lage configures Havana. The proposed analysis seeks to recognize in this author's novel, Carbono 14. Una novela de culto, the strategies of configuration of the Havana city, based on the characters that appear in it. I start from the premise that the writer constructs a story that sets in motion the identity and specificity of Havana and forwards them to other delocalized universes by exchanging and translating referents. Subjects in Lage's writing, wanderers, exiles, migrants, tourists, robots, zombies transplant behaviors, transcode images from here and there and build a portable, movable and expanded account of the terroir in which it is difficult to locate an identity.
