This article considers how literary genre conditions the influence of imaginative geographies on textual representations of place and space. Focusing on a central case study, it argues that the representation of South America in Luis Sepulveda's popular travelogue Patagonia Express is the product of interplay between two competing forces:the boundaries imposed by the travelogue genre and a widely-circulated imaginative geography of South America as a space where 'the fantastic' or magical is inherent to everyday reality.
