ABSTRACT
When invited by the editor of this volume to contribute a follow-up to an earlier study of hybrid storyspaces, I was immediately intrigued, since the most familiar shape of hybrid narrative in Latin America—as elsewhere—has been overwhelmingly male and resolutely geeky. The context proposed by this volume’s challenge to think about gender, sexuality, and mass culture together with hybrid forms reminded me of the dialectal reasoning associated with medieval scholasticism: How many angels can dance on the head of this particular pin?
