%X the article suggests a reading of the novels el palacio de la risa, ¨ªdola and cartago by germ¨¢n mar¨ªn, departing from the image of the individual¡¯s loss of a uniting shelter, symbolically represented by the dyadic bubble proposed by the philosopher peter sloterdijk. putting into dialogue mar¨ªn and sloterdijk, this article shows that the narrative of the chilean writer reiterates in its plot the modern individual¡¯s catastrophe of an irretrievable loss, remaining expelled of a significant protective sphere. the recent history of chile functions as a metonymy of an existential cataclysm of the human being understood as marked by a lack.
