This thesis offers an analysis of the novel La ultima mudanza de Felipe Carrillo of the Peruvian writer Alfredo Bryce Echenique. It is an approach to the narrative strategies which allow the reader to recreate an oral atmosphere through writing, and which propose, consequently, new perspectives to reading fiction. / First, the distinctive features of the Post-boom novel are studied so that the links which associate Bryce's work with this literary period can be established (chapter one). Second, the narrative techniques presented in the novel are studied, namely, orality, musical and literary intertexts, digression, and dialogic unstableness (chapter two). These elements---especially orality and intertextuality---make possible the construction of a conversational dynamic in which the author develops the different thematic axes of his work: search for love (chapter three), search of a national, as well as a social and creative identities (chapter four), and literary self-consciousness (chapter five).
