Starting from the legal proceedings surrounding the forced sterilization of one of the protagonists, this article approaches the novel as a device of collective enunciation whose polyphony—statements, transcripts, a fanzine, and a novel written in easy-to-read format—produces a subversive we-voice. The discussion is structured around three main axes: ableism as a form of biopolitical governance, desire as a source of political subjectivation in opposition to prohibition and domestication, and the conflicted search for a commons beyond the institutional "fallacious we." By juxtaposing antagonistic, erotic, and textual desires, the article argues that the novel stages a "crip politicization" that rejects homogeneous community and instead proposes a commons without community, thereby challenging the reader to take a critical stance. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: Spanish refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Hispanic Review is the property of University of Pennsylvania Press and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
