El origen de este libro es el "Encuentro México/Río de la Plata" dedicado a "La narrativa rioplatense" que tuvo lugar en El Colegio de México en marzo de 1999 y que reunió a escritores e investigadores de Argentina, Uruguay y México. Uno de los propósitos centrales de este "Encuentro" fue el de abrir una posibilidad de diálogo entre dos áreas culturales que tuvieron en el pasado múltiples contactos y grandes afinidades. Pensar desde México algunos aspectos de la narrativa rioplatense del siglo XX y proponer enfoques comparativos entre la ficción que se escribe en México y en el Río de la Plata constituyen no sólo dos formas de salir de este confinamiento sino también un saludable intercambio, una posibilidad de compartir experiencias de lectura.

Office-based writers from both sides of the River Plate chronicle the twentieth century. Martel's La bolsa (1891) initiates, and Dorfman's Reader (1995) concludes, a study of the white-collar citizens of Buenos Aires and Montevideo in their daytime habitat: the office. The literary background is the European literature of bureaucracy: Balzac, Galdós, Gogol, Dickens, Dostoyevsky, Kafka; the theoretical approach is through the sociologists Max Weber and C. Wright Mills; the historical context is the twentieth century: the decline of European power and the ascendency of the USA; two World Wars; the Wall Street crash; communism and fascism. Through the eyes of Arlt, Benedetti, Campodónico, Cortázar, De Castro, Denevi, Fernández, Marechal, Mariani, Martínez Estrada, Onetti and Ricci, we observe life on both sides of the River Plate, as the two countries succumb to polarisation, repression and, eventually, military dictatorship. This is the twentieth century, viewed by a bewildered, frequently anguished participant: the person at the next desk. PAUL R. JORDAN lectures in Hispanic Studies at the University of Sheffield.
