SALINAS, María Victoria. On implications of writing when facing the impossible. Anu. investig. [online]. 2011, vol.18, pp.145-149. ISSN 1851-1686.

This article begins analyzing a letter that brings back Job´s questions, this time regarding the slaughter of millions of innocent people in the Holocaust. Where was God in Auschwitz?, asks ZviKolitz, who, in his own way, questions a God who in times of pain and helplessness hides His face. Such writing, found inside a bottle in the ruins of the Warsaw ghetto, becomes a testament made at the end of life. Lucidly but passionately, he challenges God, calls for Him and turns Him into his own God, thus saving himself. This study is based on that posthumous letter to focus on Writing and the role of the Other when the enjoyment torments the subject. Against segregation phenomena, that turns victims to a pure nothingness, we postulate that what rescues a person from this reduction is the ability of becoming aSubject by turning the Other from universal to unique. Finally, we will ind out the existing relationship between the Other, in this case God, the suffering of men and Writing.

Palabras clave : Suffering; Other; Enjoyment; Writing.
