Dentro de ellas sobresale La Rambla paralela (2002) por ser una novela en la que el narrador tradicional de Vallejo, uno en primera persona, configura un biógrafo que escribe, desde la tercera persona, el viaje a Barcelona y la muerte del narrador. El interés de este artículo es evaluar cómo el desdoblamiento del narrador-autor en la figura del biógrafo le permite al primero hacer de la novela un espejo por medio del cual evalúa sus rasgos estilísticos.
