This work focuses on analyzing three works, “Emma Zunz” by Jorge Luis Borges, La muerte y la doncella by Ariel Dorfman and “Putas asesinas” by Roberto Bolaño. Undoubtedly. These three works, forming a narrative similarity, are motivated by the history of Judith. Borges, taking advantage of the narrative structure of Judith and inverting the logic of cause and effect, distorts the codes of the detective novel. In La muerte y la doncella, Ariel Dorfman, also using Judith's story, problematizes Chilean history through the memory of a woman who seeks the truth. Finally, Roberto Bolaño, through a woman who kidnaps a man and tries to murder him after having a sexual relationship, radically criticizes the androcentric world. Although the three works have different ways of narrating, they start from the story of Judith in common. This clearly shows that rewriting or parody is one of the fundamental features of writing.
