A consensus as to who is a Latin American is a longdebated topic in Latin American literature.Nineteenth century intellectuals viewed the citiesand their inhabitants of European extraction, as theideal spaces and people on which an identity couldbe defined. However the dynamics of movement, fromrural to urban areas, of people of diverse ethnicand socioeconomic backgrounds, make it difficult touphold descriptors of space, race, or culture, assole markers. Twentieth century writers of fiction,by addressing pressing issues such as the dynamismof movement between the countryside and the citiesdemonstrate that it is difficult to ascribepermanent identity descriptors as characters, wholike the inhabitants of the region, constantlyreconfigure their identity as they move from onespace to another.
