Resumo
Chilean writer Pedro Lemebel’s popularity has increased in the last years. Several documentaries, movies, plays, street art works and songs have paid tribute to this writer’s
unquestionable commitment to Chilean marginal groups. Lately, literary criticism on
Lemebel’s work has also been revitalised, with numerous journal articles and a few
manuscripts engaging with this author’s contribution to Chilean popular culture and literature. However, an aspect that still needs further revision is his participation in radio.
Between 1994 and 2002, Lemebel conducted the program “Cancionero” on Chilean
feminist Radio Tierra station. This midday space was mainly focused on an audience of
stay-at-home mothers with whom the writer shared literature, strategically accompanied
by ad-hoc music. Because most female-oriented radio programs at the time were focused
on entertainment, Lemebel’s action was indeed countercultural. This article is engaged
with the content of such literary/audio material. It analyses six audio samples from this
radio show, where biographies of famous Latin American women are depicted. It demonstrates the writer’s commitment with reflecting upon an idealised image of popular
femininity, by showcasing actions of right and wrongdoing, performed by these women.
