Abstract

It is discussed in A eternidade e o desejo (2008) by Inês Pedrosa, the clashes between the affective relationships of the social contemporary world, marked, in many ways, by frailty of the human contacts, and the senses of memory able to, in opposite movements, say the need of identity bonds. So, it is developed a critical approach about the novel potentialities to turn more acute the perception of all kinds of automatisms put in action in the current globalized society.
