Abstract

This article is a presentation of a number of narratives centered on the experience of the arabimmigration in Chile. Our view differentiates three semantic units of reading: home (origin anddestination), cultural subject (family, nation, sexuality) and writing. We pay special attention to theway these texts enounce discrimination and the ways to confront it.
