El cuerpo sufriente como lugar de memoria en Fe en disfraz, de Mayra Santos-Febres.

This article examines the entanglement of fiction and historical memory. More particularly, it analyses how Santos-Febres' literary representation of slavery confronts traditional malecentered narratives, while reproducing the myth of the eroticized mulatta. Furthermore, this article focuses on how the (re/de)construction of sexual abuse of slave women challenges traditional sexual, gender, racial, and social dynamics in postcolonial societies.
