Abstract
This article presents an analysis of three literary texts and one photographic series about the border between Chile and Peru. Through the selected texts, the essay explores the Chilean gaze over the Peruvian otherness, to see how these works break official discourses on national identities. The selected works are: the chronicle “Chalaco amor (sinopsis de novela)” (2004), by Pedro Lemebel (2004); the short story “El Ojo de Watanabe” (2013) by Andrea Jeftanovic; the short novel Camanchaca (2009) by Diego Zuñiga; and the photography series Tacna (2014) by Paz Errázuriz.
