But in addition, the two novels exhibit their respective story-building processes through certain writing scenes. These not only emphasize the dimension of writing as work but also refer to the poetics of each author. If, on the one hand, the circularity, the iteration and the conjectural character of the elaborate phrase are in Chejfec the formal expression of the link between writing and melancholy, on the other, the stylistic carelessness, the rush and the thick lines of Airian fiction are the signs of an aesthetics of bad writing that is presented as a non-work. Este trabajo analiza las representaciones del trabajo industrial en Boca de lobo de Sergio Chejfec y La mendiga de César Aira. Pero además, las dos novelas exhiben sus respectivos procesos de construcción del relato a través de ciertas escenas de escritura. Estas no solo ponen el acento sobre la dimensión de la escritura como trabajo sino que reenvían a la poética de cada autor. Si, por un lado, la circularidad, la iteración y el carácter conjetural de la trabajada frase son en Chejfec la expresión formal del vínculo entre escritura y melancolía, por otro, el descuido estilístico, la precipitación y los trazos gruesos de la ficción airiana son las señas de una estética de lo malogrado que se presenta al modo de un no–trabajo.
