Abstract
Our interpretation of the book Los trabajadores de la muerte intends to analise what is pre- sent in it through the destructuring of language as a neuralgic point of Diamela Eltit's na- rrative, which here challenges post structuralist interpretation. Hence, we tried to decipher its hermeneutic through Jacques Derrida’s theoretical foci. We aim to detect apones as the text offers múltiple impossibilities, in its linguistic structure as well as in the unsure profile of the characters. Eltit's disquieting narrative, alien to canons, nevertheless hosts a universe removed from the mass culture, lies not just in the meanings but also, with great expressive strength, in the signifiers. We are interested in her many models of representaron (identity is deeply inserted in the process of representation, according to Stuart Hall), in the evolution e recreation of the classic tragedy without concession, what it represents in contemporary collective identity and in the mentality hospitable to the marginality, hostile to the unaware reader assumed by the author.
