El prestigio de la belleza y Donde nadie me espere de Piedad Bonnett: dos Bildungsroman colombianos.

Piedad Bonnett is best known for her poetical trajectory. Her novels are also known for her interest in portraying human condition in a more personal and intimate way where the psychological aspect stands out. Two of her novels El prestigio de la belleza (2010) and Donde nadie me espere (2018) are an example. Texts that can be considered Bildungsroman, thanks to the ample categorization that this genre gives, show how the main characters go through a phenomenological process that modifies and transform them, achieving in this way one of the characteristics of this type of texts, that of self-discovery and self-growth.
