The text raises the question about how it is possible to tell the disease and the main symptom, the pain that acquires prosopopoeic dimensions. The writing rehearses the ways of narrating that devastated life experience, forced to adapt to survive. The spaces of the language, the desk and the notebook thread the intimate and the social, the affections, the rituals and the daily obstacles of a suffering body. We will review here the core concepts of body (Coourtine), disease (Sontag, Laplantine) and pain (Le Breton) among others, which allow us to account for Puga's aesthetic proposal. Diario del dolor de la escritora mexicana María Luisa Puga se inscribe en el cruce genérico de lo ficcional y lo autobiográfico. El texto plantea el interrogante alrededor de cómo es posible decir la enfermedad y el principal síntoma, el dolor que adquiere dimensiones prosopopéyicas. La escritura ensaya los modos de narrar esa experiencia vital arrasada, obligada a adaptarse para sobrevivir. Los espacios de la lengua, el escritorio y el cuaderno enhebran lo íntimo y lo social, los afectos, los rituales y los obstáculos cotidianos de un cuerpo doliente. Revisaremos aquí los conceptos nucleares de cuerpo (Courtine), enfermedad (Sontag, Laplantine) y dolor (Le Breton) entre otros, que nos permitan dar cuenta de la propuesta estética de Puga.
