VILLEGAS CABRERA, Olivia Margarita. Manual Prático do ódio by Ferréz: Waste in the Favela’s Underworld. perifrasis. rev.lit.teor.crit. [online]. 2024, vol.15, n.32, pp.11-29.  Epub Apr 30, 2024. ISSN 2145-8987.  https://doi.org/10.25025/perifrasis202415.32.01.

This article analyzes the work Manual Prático do ódio by Ferréz in the light of some theories that deal with what is relegated to the margins. The aim is to demonstrate that in Ferréz’s work all the characters, in their situation of marginalized subjects, show the condition of human waste, being both lagging victims of economic progress and victims of stigmas and diatribes manifested by hierarchically superior beings. The research considers Zygmunt Bauman’s concept of human waste as its backbone, an approach that is intertwined with secondary sources (Butler, Lipovetsky, Lynch, Paugam, SilvaSantisteban, Wacquant) referring to other forms and dimensions of marginality.

Keywords : Ferréz; literary studies; 21st Century; Brazil; favela; marginality; waste; otherness.
