Abstract

Analysis of Letícia Wierzchowsky's novels: Uma ponte para Terebin (2006), Os Getka (2010) e Cristal polonês (2003). She is an author from the state of Rio Grande do Sul/ Brazil. This author wrote also The House of the Seven Women through which she became renowned. Following Moacyr Scliar, José Clemente Pozenato and Josué Guimarães in terms of Jewish, Italian and German immigration matters, respectively, the author retraces the Polish presence in the southern part of Brazil through memorial fragments (traces) such as letters, photos and oral narratives where the tone is gotten from the affective memory.
