This essay focuses on the concept of migration and the representations of migration phenomenon in contemporary literature and comic, with a particular attention to Latin American continent. In Latin America, in particular in the last years, literature is actively involved: in Mexico in the denunciation of migration drama in the U.S.-Mexico border and in Argentina in the denunciation of woman discrimination and femicide, which is so widespread in the continent, and in the subordinate subjects’ life, living at the margins of society.
