Summary/Abstract: This article analyses how the concept of ‘everyday inhabiting’ is problematised in the novel A house fullof people (2019) by Mariana Sández. The methodology is based on the philosophy of Giorgio Agamben,especially on two critical categories: use and care, identified by Camilo Boano as components of the defi-nition of inhabiting. In addition, it incorporates Jolanta Brach-Czaina’s theoretical approach to domesticlife, highlighting her concept of “everyday hustle and bustle”. The article focuses on ontological andexistential considerations, exploring the ethics of daily choices in the way of inhabiting as a key elementin the organisation of communal life.
