My dissertation focuses on 20th- and 21st-century Mexican and Central American narrative fiction, and my work is animated by questions of political agency, economic precarity, and social violence. I read the narrative fiction of Chilean-Mexican Roberto Bolano and Honduran-Salvadoran Horacio Castellanos Moya to consider how their works, published since the end of the Cold War, index an epochal shift from national modernity to neoliberal globalization. My research dialogues with Latin American literary theory and cultural criticism, but also with an interdisciplinary matrix of thinkers in jurisprudence, anthropology, sociology, geography, political science, and philosophy. Throughout this dissertation, I examine the literature of Bolano and Castellanos Moya as narrative fiction that responds to and interrogates the decline of national modernity, the onset of neoliberal globalization, and the differential expression of these processes across the globe. My analysis attends to how their works are preoccupied with the violence and inequality that obtains as neoliberal globalization becomes ascendant, and I pay particular attention to the ways in which their texts destabilize the traditional geopolitical coordinates with which social relations are typically conceptualized. Concretely, I argue that their novels manifest how the effects of epochal change are not neatly delineated by national borders. Thus, though I examine their novels in relation to the political, cultural, and economic particularities of Mexico and Central America, I also attend to the ways in which their novels problematize this type of categorization and move beyond the coordinates of the nation-state. To this end, I conceive of the current epoch via "post-nationalism," which refers to the extant but modified role of the nation-state in neoliberal globalization. My research makes three principal contributions to literary scholarship: (1) I undertake a sustained examination of Bolano's and Castellanos Moya's engagement with the literary tradition, arguing that their texts engender a dialectic between the literary past and present; (2) I examine my authors' literary rejection of Leftist militant reason and discuss how their novels implicate the Left in the rise of neoliberal globalization; and (3) I argue that their oeuvres constitute a shift toward a new aesthetic regime of post-national literature.
