Abstract
The narrator’s subjectivation process is analyzed in El libro vacío by Josefina Vicens. Throughout the notes of the fictional diary that make up the novel, the modeling of the writing that José García sets in motion is followed from the dilemma of the writer called and that same time prevented from carrying out his work, especially, as long as it is configured in parallel the identity of the subject who writes. From the subjective turn and beyond the individual’s fading that has been noticed under an existentialist reading of the work, it is proposed to address the configuration of identity that is implicit in writing as a way of structuring one’s life.

Al menos por un lustro, se adelanta al tipo de preocupaciones que estos y otros escritores harán explícitas en su obra, las cuales serán reformuladas después bajo la noción de escritura por Margo Glantz en el contexto de la narrativa joven de principios de los años setenta: “la narrativa cuestiona el lenguaje, lo descubre, transforma su sentido, lo crea, lo disuelve a la vez en edificio y andamio” (Glantz, 1971, p. 32)
3 Los textos “El discurso feminista encubierto en las novelas de Josefina Vicens” de Eve Gil y “El travestismo textual en Los años falsos” de Ute Seydel reunidos en el volumen de Castro y Pettersson (2006), junto con el artículo de Sánchez (2006), fueron quizá los primeros en asumir abiertamente esta perspectiva
Summary
The narrator’s subjectivation process is analyzed in El libro vacío by Josefina Vicens. Este es un aspecto llamativo que, desde luego, ha seguido la crítica tanto a partir de la escritura como de sus implicaciones en la representación de esa identidad desdibujada.
