"Junot Díaz's 'Aurora' and 'Aguantando' as Minor Literature."

Original language description

Two short stories published in the collection Drown (1996) by the Dominican-American fiction writer Junot Díaz are analyzed in this contribution in part by applying the notion of "minor" literature expounded by Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari in Kafka:Toward a Minor Literature (1975). Díaz produces bi-cultural immigrant stories in a modernist narrative form, treating both the machismo culture and the post-colonial experience in the U.S. and Dominican Republic. As prolegomena to a thorough understanding of Díaz's more recent work, The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao (2007), this study underscores themes developed more extensively in his Pulitzer Prize winning novel.
