【 摘 要 】

In Guadalupe Nettel’s narratives, the representation of disability deconstructs various Latin American paradigms of 'normalcy', within a global context. Drawing primarily from her novel, Después del invierno (2014), this study focuses on the processes that confront the restrictive and oppressive notions of 'the feminine' and 'the masculine'. Following theoretical postulates that define disability as a social construction, as well as contemporary theories on gender and masculinities, this essay seeks to uncover the ways in which the normalization of otherness reveals the elastic and malleable identity of the protagonists. Consequently, the study also traces the reciprocal connection between gender and disability as portrayed in the novel, as well as the social perception of disability.
