Resumen: En este ensayo se analizan las obras de dos autoras cubanas de la diáspora, Sonia Rivera-Valdés y Jacqueline Herranz-Brooks, enfocando  especialmente la temática lesbiana de estas narraciones, con especial atención a la forma como nos revelan la situación de las lesbianas en Cuba, sobre todo en el “Periodo especial”, a la vez que se convierte en un modo de subvertir la hete- rosexualidad obligatoria. De este modo se indaga sobre cómo en sus relatos se construye el sujeto “abyecto” (el personaje lésbico) en oposición al sistema heteronor- mativo y cómo este sujeto pasa de la “abyección” a la subversión, al desafiar la heterosexualidad obligatoria. Palabras clave: lesbianas, heterosexualidad obligatoria, abyección, narrativa cubanaThe Construction of the Lesbian Character in the Cuban Stories by Sonia Rivera-Valdés y Jacqueline Herranz-Brooks: from “abjection” to subversion Abstract: This essay analyzes the ways in which Cuban literature with lesbian themes by two exiled writers, Sonia Rivera-Valdés and Jacqueline Herranz-Brooks, reveals the situation of lesbians in Cuba, above all in the “Special Period,” and also becomes a way to subvert compulsory heterosexuality. Thus it enquires into the ways in which their stories construct the “abject” subject of the lesbian character in opposition to the heteronormative system and how this subject moves from abjection to subversion, in challenging compulsory heterosexuality.Key Words: lesbians, compulsory heterosexuality, abjection, Cuban narrative
