description This paper will address the way in which the work of Alejandro Zambra (1975) is built on a project of unconventional literary art. It focuses on the analysis of Facsímil (2015), a work in which the Chilean writer takes as hypotext the form of the Academic Aptitude Test that was submitted in Chile to students who were applying to enter into the University. The work narrated through the format of the test allows to reflect not only on strategies of unconventional literary inspiration, but as well on the authority of the writer which is undermined through the uncommon form of the story. This work collects and reconstructs fragments that can be read as flash-fiction, poetry, short stories or, on the whole, as fiction. However, although the plot of Facsímil can be followed without difficulty, it is important to take into consideration that the form has not been chosen at random and it is neither a whim and responds to a particular interest in which the concept of the book stands out above the content of the work. This research takes into account the diverse contexts of literary, cultural and social significance with which the Zambra work dialogues.

La reflexión se centra en el análisis de Facsímil (2015), obra en la que el escritor chileno toma como hipotexto el formato de la Prueba de Aptitud Académica a la que se sometía en Chile a los estudiantes que se postulaban para ingresar a la Universidad. La obra narrada por medio de la estructura de la prueba permite reflexionar no solo sobre estrategias de creación literaria poco comunes, sino sobre la figura de autoridad del escritor que se mina con las formas excepcionales del relato. Esta obra recoge y reconstruye fragmentos que pueden leerse como minificciones, poemas, cuentos o, de manera global, como textos novelísticos. No obstante, aunque los argumentos de Facsímil pueden seguirse sin dificultad, es importante tomar en consideración que la forma de elaboración elegida por el autor no es gratuita y responde a un interés particular en que el concepto del libro sobresale por encima del contenido de la obra. Esta investigación toma en cuenta los diversos contextos de significación literarios, culturales y sociales con los cuales dialoga la obra Zambra.  No presente trabalho estuda-se a forma em que a obra de Alejandro Zambra (1975) se constrói atendiendo a um projeto de arte literário não convencional.
