Abstract: How does one remove bodies from the play of a language so quick to hide them behind the seduction of its veils? This sort of question invites us to explore the field of tension in which many of the authors in the Verticales catalog are situated, between the attempt to “prevent the derealizing effect of writing,” the desire to cause outrage so it can be denounced all the more effectively, or the refusal to “correct it by the means available to literature” (Nicole Caligaris).
