Abstract

The drug trafficking fiction is expanding throughout a new geography. The almost recent appearance of Galician novels about cocaine trafficking in Northern Spain and the connections between the local capos with Colombian and Mexican cartels enriches the field of study of the so-called “narco-literature”. The aim of this work is first to question the social, political, and economic problems that favored drug trafficking in Galicia, through the analysis of a collective memory. Moreover, this work proposes the somatization of the body as a possible point of contact between Galician fictions and their Colombian and Mexican counterparts.
