The book Quarto de despejo, of the author, Carolina Maria de Jesus, was used as an object of knowledge as a corpus of research to understand the phenomenon of hunger, from the point of view of Food and Nutrition Security. In order to reach the objective of this study, a complete reading of the work was done, as well as the elaboration of a digital file that subsidized the subsequent analysis of the data. The results found in the research were systematized in three topics of analysis: hunger is treated as a social inequity, being unveiled through the violation of the Human Right to Adequate Food; The body and mind suffer under the dense hardships of hunger; And eats, drinks, lives in an unhealthy space: the favela is the dumping ground of humanity. It is believed that reflecting on this food phenomenon makes it possible to enter into a dense imagery of meanings that goes beyond objective interpretationsAttribution 3.0 BrazilInsegurança alimentar e nutricionalFomeVulnerabilidade socialLiteraturaarticlehttps://doi.org/10.33362/ries.v8i1.1469
