Description In my paper I analyse the narrative work of the Spanish writer Vicente Luis Mora. First I present his theoretical conception of the literature of the 21st century (for which he uses the term pangeic literature) and his conception of the reader of this type of literature (the lecto-spectator). According to Vicente Luis Mora, pangeic literature is the continuation of postmodern literature, and Mora thinks that today we are in a period of transformation of the paradigm from the written to the visual, because pangeic literature not only represents the world of today, but also represents it with its own instruments. Secondly, I analyse how Mora's theoretical conception is reflected in his narrative works: Circular 07. Las afueras and Alba Cromm. Mora observes the similarity between the category of the narrator and the interface of technological machines. In Alba Cromm, a mechanical narrator takes the place of the classical narrator - the novel takes the form of a magazine. Finally, I reflect on the possibilities of this type of narrative to reflect the current problems of human beings and today's society, and also on the place of pangeic literature in the context of postmodern literature.
