Abstract

Can a gendered memory exist? Can a masculine and/or femine memory exist? And what happens when the memories of a father salvage (or try to salvage) the fragmentary experiences of a daughter, articulated in a personal and subjective time but punctuated by traumatic moments in history, in particular, within national history? K.: relato de uma busca by Bernando Kucinski, is a not only a literary text but a political and cultural expedient that attempts to try to broach some of the above cited issues, such as the survivor’s memory or post-memory, questions that are central in Brazil’s contemporary discussions about the past.
