This article analyzes the narrative hybridity in the short stories written by Juan Rulfo and Ricardo Garibay to show to what extent these authors represent the heterogeneous mark of modern literature in Latin America. In Rulfo’s and Garibay’s stories, two divergent worlds coexist (the rural and the urban, the oral and the literary) through mechanisms related to narrative transculturation. Local themes are expressed through innovative formal techniques, such as that of colloquial or oral prose, flow of consciousness or a fragmented narrative.
