This article argues that a large body of texts that spontaneously emerged in Mexico in the aftermath of the Mexico City earthquake of September 19, 2017, constitute a “genre of emergency” that allows one to read not only the seismic event itself but also the tensions and debates surrounding the political context in which it occurred. I propose analyzing the narratives that follow a natural disaster as part of a textual genre that subsequently moves to other spaces. In particular, I explore the most immediate readings that the event provoked and the way they made visible dynamics previously hidden under “normal” spatial configurations. I suggest that the physical collapse revealed a new visibility of urban space that simultaneously implied a new legibility of the political space that contains it. Resumen El enorme caudal de mensajes generados espontaneamente tras el sismo que sacudio a la Ciudad de Mexico el 19 de septiembre de 2017 constituye todo un genero de emergencia con el que leer no solo el evento sismico, sino el espacio politico donde se inserta, sus tensiones y debates. En este ensayo propongo analizar las narrativas que suceden a un desastre natural como integrantes de un genero textual que puede trasladarse a otros escenarios, asi como explorar las lecturas mas inmediatas que provoco este evento y el modo en que visibilizaron dinamicas normalmente ocultas bajo las configuraciones espaciales cotidianas: El derrumbe causo una nueva visibilidad del espacio urbano que implico una nueva legibilidad del espacio politico que lo contiene.
