  • This chapter revisits Cristina Peri Rossi’s experimental novel La nave de lo locos in order to examine the doubly fragile state of the female in exile. Focusing on the inscription of the real and symbolic body during the Operación Condor, and more specifically the Año de la Orientalidad, Olivera Williams weaves a tactful and rich analysis of the exilic body throughout her essay, culminating in what she reads as Peri Rossi’s desire to reconstruct imaginaries of the present and future. This mark will be made, she argues using Peri Rossi’s own words, “si no en el muro de la catedral, sí en el bastidor de la mente.”
