Abstract

In focusing on Stephen King’s novel It (1986), this article focuses on the representation of the sewer system as an ‘apparatus’, not only considering intertextual tangencies (Hugo, Zola, Sue), but also applying the hermeneutical framework of Material Ecocriticism. In the case of It, the sewers become an urban body: the space of an irreversible contamination that can express an ‘ecophobic’ tension and, likewise, carry on a narrative on the side of the mismanagement of wastewater and the consequent pollution of ecosystems. it tied.
