Abstract

In the last lustra of the 20th century and in the beginning of the 21st century, the state of emergency caused by the armed conflict in Colombia generated a problematic change of values with the “moral” of drug trafficking and hit men. As a result of this, there was a painful need to try for luck in other places, either internal displacement or
emigration to different countries. This has been consigned in a literature that transmits a sense of defeat and perplexity. It not only gives testimony, but the authors also strike one’s attention on reality, they speak to readers about themselves, the world, thoughts, creation and history, and they expose the facts as a consequence of the
past or as a condition of the present.
