Landscape as it appears and is described throughout the works of Bernardo Carvalho and Robert Walser provides an excellent-yet virtually unexplored-pathway to the authors' literary projects. The landscape functions here as a synthetic and unifying figure that triggers at first through the analysis of its description per se the main and most evident elements of the authors' works. However when sustained as a methodological figure beyond the scope of its own description the landscape soon reveals a darker far more fascinating and far less explored side of the authors' oeuvres: a vengeful seemingly defeatist resentment against the status quo which gives way to the more latent and biting elements of the authors' prose such as irony the unheimlich an anti-heroic agenda the apocalyptic aesthetics of a disaster-prone fictional world as well as an understanding of history and literature through the figures of failure and marginality. By drawing from diverse critical traditions from Latin-America and Europe this comparative text seeks to unravel in all of its complexity and scope the fictional stage upon which Walser's and Carvalho's characters narrate with their dying breath a world that is slowly undoing itself.
