Sumari:This work starts from considering the publication of Bomarzo (1962) by Manuel Mujica Lainez as a cultural milestone that imposed itself as a great challenge to the reading canons of the time. The difficulties in the work’s acceptance have been reflected in contemporary critical testimonies, and there is even evidence of its persistence years later. In that wake, it is pertinent to analyze the configuration of the narrator, since in his specificity lies much of the novel’s novelty. To this end, in addition to taking into account the fantastic component, we will approach the work as an autofiction that challenges the historiographical assumptions sustained, to a large extent, by the traditional historical novel.
