Between the silence of the Parámo and the fury of the Compsons

Between the silence of the Páramo and the fury of the Compson makes a comparative study of the works of two great authors: Juan Rulfo and William Faulkner, the author's purpose is not to compare in order to say that one author is better than the other, but to show that in all literature there are communicating vessels that give rise to similarities in works that were written from different places of enunciation and different times. The chapters study the works from the point of view of their own society and language, as well as the characters and the structure of the two novels.
