The central theme of this research is the analysis of the metaphor of the gaze in the female characters in the narratives of the Puerto Rican writer Olga Nolla and the Mexican writer Ángeles Mastretta. As a theoretical framework, the theory of psychoanalysis by Jaques Lacan and feminist criticism by Simone de Beauvoir have been taken into consideration in order to address the representation of female characters, their subversion and patriarchal culture in the works El manuscrito de Miramar by Nolla, Mujeres de ojos grandes and Maridos by Mastretta. The selected works share common elements that manifest the presence of the main theme we have pointed out.
