Abstract

In this article we will analyze the poetic texts Cobijo by Felipe Ruiz, [guión] by Héctor Hernández and Cuerpo perforado es una casa by Gustavo Barrera, following the idea of a childish and spoiled subjectivity, that reappropriates one of the most important signifiers of chilean literaty tradition, such as the house, to elaborate from that place different fictions concerning the ways in which Chilean children today inhabit and internalize in their own bodies the whole social history that they have had to experience as children of the ill and bastard offspring of the free market culture, consolidated in our country during the process of democratic transition.
