description Abstract: Using the theoretical apparatuses of Giorgio Agamben and Sayak Valencia, in the present work I show that drug trafficking acts in the novel Perra Brava by Orfa Alarcón as a sex-generic power device and induces the reproduction of “endriagas masculinities” that reaffirm a system necropolitical, heteropatriarchal and violent. This explains why the heroine, Fernanda Salas, by transforming herself into an “endriago subject” and reaching the top of the criminal organization is not liberating or subverting the system that oppresses her, but rather giving it feedback, thereby witnessing her failed resurrection or rebirth.
