ABOUT THE PRESENTATION

“Escrever não é lembrar, e sim, pelo contrário, delimitar o que é impossível recuperar” - esta frase do escritor argentino Sergio Chejfec, de um texto intitulado “Língua simples, nome”, é o ponto de partida para falar sobre alguns percursos de leituras e reflexões, na elaboração de um romance em processo, “O livro com ela”, sobre uma experiência vivida entre duas mulheres, na Argentina de meados dos anos 70. A apresentação combina momentos reflexivos e performáticos, com a leitura de trechos já escritos do livro.

“Writing is not remembering, but rather, on the contrary, delimiting what is impossible to recover” — this phrase by the Argentine writer Sergio Chejfec, from a text entitled “Simple Language, Name,” is the starting point for discussing some paths of reading and reflection in the elaboration of a novel in progress, “O livro com ela,” about an experience shared by two women in Argentina in the mid-1970s. The presentation combines reflective and performative moments with the reading of already-written excerpts from the book.
