Memorias de una prostituta (Spanish Edition)

This dissertation studies the representations of prostitution in relation to artistic and literary creation in contemporary Spanish American novels Specifically, I analyze the following five novels: I argue that prostitution is a trope that allows these novels to embody purely literary processes such as reading and writing. Critical literature on prostitution in nineteen and twenty century Latin-American novels has focused almost exclusively in the allegoric meanings that portray the prostitute as a character who either represents the social ailments of the Nation-State or a symbol of political and economic problems brought forth by the global markets.

Instead, this dissertation considers the representation of brothels and prostitution in these novels as a metaliterary trope. In other words, brothels and prostitutes in these novels showcase stories that engage the vocation, desire and necessity of producing oral and written artistic discourses. I look at the relationship between the brothel opening and the writing acts which are triggered such as poems, chronicles, letters and even the fiction that we read.

In the second chapter, I examine two texts identified with the counter-cultural movement of the seventies. It is important to note that the prostitutes in these novels are not just the main characters, but also the ones that narrate their own stories displaying singular ways of the storytelling process.

In the third chapter, I explore how the feminine body associated with prostitution stimulates private fantasies related to the act of writing.
