摘要:The purpose of this article, is to shed light on how different norms circumscribe our bodies, framing and even modifying them, sometimes in a radical way. To resist these norms implies to acknowledge both, the fact of being oppressed by them and at the same time, a certain level of assimilation with the oppressive power. Through different passages of the three novels Anyone's slave: the incredible story of Elen@ de Céspedes (Sánchez Vidal 2010), Middlesex (Eugenides 2003) and Annabel (Winter 2010), the intention is to illustrate the foucauldian notion that is through the rearticulation of the tools the power uses to opress bodies, that we can find a place of resistance.
