Paris-Austerlitz is a novel that Rafael Chirbes wrote between 1996 and 2015, and it was published in 2016, a few months after the writer's death. It narrates a love story between a young man from Madrid and an adult migrant. The story takes place in Paris and it´s relationship traversed by the affects caused by AIDS. The revulsion and fear of contagion appear as the affects for a writing that takes the narrator almost twenty years of interruption and silence. From a perspective that prioritizes the inscription of the affects with the HIV virus is named, this work analyzes how Paris-Austerlitz shows the silences of an epidemic that operated in Spain in a singular way: distinguishing between the lives traversed by the disease, which in the framework of the culture of the Transition would be silenced, because they represented an aging voice and body for the future democratic citizenry.

Palabras clave : Chirbes; AIDS; Illness; Affects.
