This paper seeks to showcase the way in which the ancient myth of the faustian bargain is reproduced in “Un pacto con el diablo” by Mexican author Juan José Arreola. By considering the concept of intertextuality as a possible link between the ancient myths and contemporary literature it is possible to trace parallelisms amongst the chosen myth and Juan José Arreola´s narrative.
