Abstract

Contemporary Latin American Literature is characterized by the constant reworking of the past and the official history that we are told. Pedro Lemebel’s Literary Project is based on the reconstruction of the years of Chilean Military Dictatorship. This way, this article presents a reading of the novel “Tengo Miedo Torrero”, published by Pedro Lemebel in 2001 [2002], in order to understand how the author narrates the period of authoritarianism in Chile.
