César aira and the Diario de la hepatites

Abstract

Throughout the work of the argentinian writer César Aira, the debate over the production of senses in the present via the procedures appears as a possibility to escape the project and its unproductive relationship with the future. This paper intends to discuss how Aira manages the procedures, calling upon the notions of abandonment and sickness, and how that is articulated with modernity and contemporaneity in the attempt to come up with an political-aesthetic alternative to the Latin-American scenery.
