dc.description.abstractThis thesis examines the short fiction published by Chilean writer José Donoso (1924-1996) in his late years. Through the idea of desire, as defined by Gilles Deleuze and Guattari in their L’ Anti-Œdipe, I show how the characters in Donoso’s short stories (Tres novelitas burguesas, Cuatro para Delfina, and Taratuta. Naturaleza muerta con cachimba) experience the wish of being something else (since desire lacks unity and direction, they want different things: social mobility, artistry, sophistication). Their world also lacks a center and therefore the repetition and the difference (Deleuze), is the norm. I also question whether, since Donoso still uses the word ‘identity’, he can be considered a postmodern author; I compare this to the interpretation of Latin America as essentially hybrid (Néstor García Canclini); and I attempt an alternative reading (based on the “trans-modernity” of Enrique Dussel) to understand why Donoso keeps using notions that postmodernism has deemed obsolete.en_US
