The purpose of this work is to explore the boundaries and becomings of the malleable borders: geo-space, corporal and subjective of some scenes and diffuse characters represented in the literature of the present in Latin America. That is to say, how these unstable borders plow through liquid, bald and fluid dimensions in the skins, corporalities and subjectivities of the literary protagonists. For this I focus on four productions of contemporary writers in relation to their other narrative drifts: “Janice e o umbigo” (2003) and “200 m2” (2010) by the Brazilian Veronica Stigger, “Un hombre sin suerte” (2015) by the Argentine Samanta Schweblin, “Perro callejero” (2009) by the Bolivian Giovanna Rivero and “Hongos” (2013) by the Mexican Guadalupe Nettel.
