Abstract

On February 26, 1971, Edgar Mejía Vargas, alias Jalisco, was murdered in the middle of the university revolt that left numerous people injured and dead in the city of Cali. In The novel Jalisco loses in Cali, Gabriela Castellanos recreates the circumstances of this event in a narrative cartography that allows us to understand the spatial and temporal mosaic of the story within history in a masterful way.
