Este libro se inscribe dentro de la tradición escritural que discute el problema de escribir sin contar con el soporte de una tradición literaria y de pensamiento teórico afropuertorriqueño, al tiempo que trata de contribuir a subsanar esa falla que identifica como marca elíptica de la tradición misma. La narrativa de Rodríguez Torres es hasta hoy, el testimonio escrito más amplio sobre la condición afropuertorriqueña dentro de la literatura insular. Su narrativa habla poco sobre los colores de piel, y menos sobre conflictos raciales. En sus textos se lee la represión de un discurso racial en la conciencia de personajes negros y mulatos.
A nivel global el análisis que ofrecemos de los textos de Rodriguez Torres también supone dos fases de lectura: una que, en líneas generales, está influenciada por el modelo de Michel Foucault, y otra que sigue el paradigma teórico de Michel de Certeau. En la primera, se abordan los discursos sobre raza e identidad como determinante de la crisis ontológica que representa el escritor afroviequense. Esta es una lectura interesada primordialmente en decodificar una respuesta de orden estratégico. La segunda lectura, en cambio se activa con el registro de la dificultad que encuentra el ejercicio del habla y la escritura y la constatación del fracaso parcial del proyecto escritural afrocéntrico. El silencio y el fracaso vienen a ser una demostración de la represión de la voz negra en la historia y en la literatura.
This book takes part in the scriptural tradition that discusses the problem of writing without the support of an Afro-Puerto Rican literary tradition and theoretical thought, while trying to help correct this flaw that it identifies as an elliptical mark of the tradition itself. Rodríguez Torres's narrative is to date the most extensive written testimony on the Afro-Puerto Rican condition within insular literature. His narrative says little about skin color, and less about racial conflict. In his texts, one can read the repression of a racial discourse in the consciousness of black and mixed race characters.
At a global level, the analysis that we offer of Rodriguez Torres' texts also involves two different reading; one that, in general terms, is influenced by the model of Michel Foucault, and another that follows the theoretical paradigm of Michel de Certeau. In the first, the discourses on race and identity are addressed as a determinant of the ontological crisis represented by the Afro-Viecan writer. This is a reading interested primarily in decoding a response of a strategic order. The second reading, on the other hand, is activated with the recording of the difficulty encountered in the exercise of speaking and writing and the verification of the partial failure of the Afrocentric writing project. Silence and failure come to be a demonstration of the repression of the black voice in history and literature.
