| Summary: | In this article I describe the poetics of uncertainty in three works by the Mexicanwriter Elena Garro. Through a close reading of two of her novels, Testimoniossobre Mariana and Reencuentro de personajes, and one autobiographicalpiece, Memorias de España 1937, I build a complex pool of literary proceduresthat Garro develops that, ultimately combined and intertwined, lead to anambiguous and peculiar prose. Autobiographical content, cinematographicreferences, cryptic descriptions and semantic confusion are only some of theresources that Garro magisterially displays in these works and that allow us tothink in terms of a solid poetic intention.
