| Sumario: | In this article we analyze the different types of humor in Juárez literature and how it has sometimes been a relevant element to show the different types of violence that Ciudad Juárez suffers. Far from minimizing the social conflicts that turn the border into a mythical territory to locate all kinds of stories, here we will comment on some works where violence is contemplated with irony and sarcasm, generally to underline the resilience of the citizens of Juárez as well as the disaffection or contempt for them that this city suffers from the rulers. To do this, we will take the poetry and narrative of authors such as Arminé Arjona, Miguel Ángel Chávez or Willivaldo Delgadillo, as examples of those who, through laughter, have created a contemporary portrait of this city.
