SEIFERT, Marcos. LIFE AS WASTE IN BAJO ESTE SOL TREMENDO BY CARLOS BUSQUED. perifrasis. rev.lit.teor.crit. [online]. 2017, vol.8, n.16, pp.82-96. ISSN 2145-8987.
This paper analyzes the way in which Carlos Busqued's novel Bajo este sol tremendo (2009) is based on the representation of discarded lives, garbage, and all kinds of remains and thus proposes a tension between order and excess. The narration raises a logic in which garbage, instead of constituting an indicator that allows for the reconstruction of the social landscape, exhibits the overflowing, the unassimilable, and the voids of meaning. In the world that Busqued presents, the living becomes a remainder because it embodies an irreducible heterogeneity with regards to any social and productive structure.
