Résumé
"In |The Invisible Countries|, Eduardo Lalo undertakes a narrative and philosophical journey through Europe. With a hybrid discourse that nimbly accommodates the travel diary, the chronicle and the philosophical essay, the author develops an ex-centric vision that, far from the… cliché of Third World victimization, undertakes a conceptual counter-conquest of the West. Thus, 'writing from invisibility', writing from the dark side of geography enhances a unique vision of the West, that Other whose myopia prevents it from recognizing 'the fiction of its invention, its laws and its grandiloquence'. In this text, the author forges new discursive possibilities for the inhabitants of 'peripheral' geographies to assume their cultural destiny freed from the gazes that often deform or deny them." -- Translation provided by NLS
