This article explores passages as a key motif and organizing structure in Valería Luiselli’s Los ingrávidos, a work praised by the critics, but so far, neglected by the scholars. The novel lends itself to a reading that focuses on this theme tracing its reiteration at the level of form, plot, and aesthetical affiliation. The latter element is addressed through a twofold analysis of relation to Latin American fantastic literature and to North American hyperrealism in the visual arts. Finally, by relating Los ingrávidos to Nicolas Bourriaud’s ideas on the radicant contemporary art, the article situates the novel within a broader context, which permits an appreciation for the constitution of Luiselli’s narrated space and her cultural territory.
