the third sentence of the 'Uses of Antigone...' section reads 'Antígona's struggle to recover the body of her brother so she can bury, grieve, and come to terms with his death is the ultimate goal of the novel.', and in the box here on the talk page it is also refered to as a novel, but it doesn't read like a novel to me. prose structure, i.e. going all the way across the page before beginning the next line, is not uncommon in modern poetry, and in reality is broken in a non-prose like way throughout uribe's text. it was written for a live performance, and theater is traditionally a form of poetry, on the flap of the 2022 edition of the book it states that uribe 'Ha publicado ocho libros de poesía...' (has published eight books of poetry), https://www.asymptotejournal.com/blog/2016/06/06/in-review-antigona-gonzalez-by-sara-uribe/, https://exhibits.lib.utexas.edu/spotlight/diversity-classics/catalog/22-364, https://queenmobs.com/2016/06/the-silence-is-our-most-unyielding-creon-five-questions-for-sara-uribe-john-pluecker-about-antigona-gonzalez/ all refer to it as a poem, and uribe herself says that one of the 'avenues of meaning' of the piece is 'The construction of a poetics in which a lyrical and sterile “I” would not take precedence.' (https://lareviewofbooks.org/article/will-join-taking-body-sara-uribes-antigona-gonzalez/) there is a certain narrative aspect to the text, but that is perfectly acceptable within poetry, and the 'spacing' mentioned in the 'Style' section of the article seems an attempt to describe something inherent in poetry. i think it wouldn't be a bad idea to reflect this in the wikipedia article, and remove the 'novel' references.
