Abstract

By means of a close textual analyis of Llegaron los hippies and No todas la suecas son rubias the present article looks to characterize Manuel Abreu Adorno, firstly, as a transitional figure in Puerto Rican letter between the writers of the seventies and those of more recent decades, secondly, as a precursor of the Crack and McOndo, and finally as a writer with a clear transatlantic vision.
