LEONARDO-LOAYZA, Richard. Casas vacías, de Brenda Navarro: Non-normative motherhood. Rev. Estud. Fem. [online]. 2023, vol.31, n.3, e87092.  Epub 01-Set-2023. ISSN 1806-9584.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1806-9584-2023v31n387092.

One of the most interesting characteristics of Latin American literature from the first decades of the 21st century is that its main representatives are women, who address issues related to the female condition, but not to reiterate the content imposed by patriarchy, but rather subvert them. One of these issues is motherhood. The following article aims to demonstrate that the novel Casas Vacias (2020) by the Mexican Brenda Navarro, questions the traditional notion of motherhood, which is personified in the figure of the non-normative mother, understood as that woman who may or may not want to comply with the mandates that society establishes to be considered a “good mother”. Navarro’s text focuses on a special variant of this category: the repentant mother, but it also alludes to the involuntary mother.

Palavras-chave : Brenda Navarro; Casas vacías; non-normative motherhood; repentant mothers; unwitting mothers.
