This article aims to analyze the future of desire in the texts En busca de Aladino (1993), El goce de la piel (2005) and Capricho en azul (2020) by Oswaldo Reynoso. The language of the Peruvian writer challenges
repudiation in order to search for a desire that is adverse and that, nevertheless, is joyous. Our objective is to investigate the becoming, according to Deleuze and Guattari, of the writing of memory, of another sexuality, where the borders of time and space are resemantized from the liberation of the heterosexual matrix. In this way, Reynoso's writing questions the performance of gender, a category studied by Butler, by locating itself at the limit of intelligibility and imagining homoerotic desire, in order to reveal a sequentiality different from heterosexual hegemony.
