| 總結: | This study is centered on the symbolism of decapitation in
Fiesta en la madriguera [Down the Rabbit
Hole]
by Juan Pablo Villalobos. This work of fiction proposes a language to refer to the decapitation of
the human body as a radical expression of evil will. And even though the figuration of extreme violence
is a repetitive topic in contemporary Mexican literature; what captures the reader ́s attention here is the
novelty of the narrative focus, which reconstructs a narco-imaginary of evil from a child ́s perspective.
As operational image of evil, the representation of decapitation makes us reflect about the inteligible
nature of the human being, and constitutes a space of replies againt the politics of abjection located in
the heart of the subject, society, and State.
