The article is based on the approaches of the Russian theorist Mikhail Bakhtin. Bakhtin proposes the concepts of carnivalization and polyphony as central categories of his literary theory. Likewise, in his analysis of Dostoevsky’s work, he affirms that the polyphonic novel is rarely presented in literature, and that this category cannot be applied to any literary work, but that it must comply with certain presuppositions. The article attempts to demonstrate that the Argentine writer Ernesto Sábato’s novel Sobre héroes y tumbas (On Heroes and Tombs) fits this concept due to the carnivalesque world it presents and the multitude of autonomous voices that appear in it. Furthermore, it examines the voices present in the novel by classifying them and explaining their structural importance in the work. ; El artículo parte de los planteamientos del teórico ruso Mijaíl Bajtín. Este plantea los conceptos de carnavalización y polifonía como categorías centrales de su teoría literaria. Asimismo, en su análisis de la obra de Dostoievski, afirma que la novela polifónica se presenta de forma poco frecuente en la literatura, y dicha categoría no puede ser aplicada a cualquier obra literaria, sino que esta debe cumplir con determinados presupuestos. El artículo intenta demostrar que la novela del escritor argentino Ernesto Sábato, Sobre héroes y tumbas, se ajusta a dicho concepto debido al mundo carnavalizado que presenta y a la multitud de voces autónomas que aparecen en ella. Además, examina las voces presentes en la novela clasificándolas y explicando su importancia estructural en la obra.
