There's another wine here we can mix with it. 
There are moments of great complicity and even humour in this work, such as the malevolent association between the particularly Portuguese nature of the disease and one of its most well-known symptoms:

Thus, the process of comprehension is not reduced to a mysterious communion of souls, but, on the contrary, involves participation in a network of meanings created by a community (which continues to interpellate me even today), and which is constantly being reconfigured within a historical process of continuous formation (cf. 
Without you / Nothing interests me
We'd be better off going to my house and having a glass of water. 
Both character and letter, strategically bound at/to one of the metanarrative junctions of the novel, function as a temporally destabilizing elements, embodying the «rewinding» of the days referred to in the previous excerpt and the constitution of narration though errata (or unreliable narration), with its dual and contradictory temporality.

Many creative writers claim that the function of literature is only to enliven our leisure hours and provide us with artistic pleasure -- in itself no insignificant task in contemporary society. But that is not all that literature (or art in general) does. Many writers and artists also ardently wish to open the eyes of their readers or public, to arouse in them a more acute critical awareness. 
Wall Street is certainly correct in his diagnosis that contemporary society is fixated upon the «media-enslaved image», which imposes superhuman standards of corporality.

At two something, I'm going to jump off the bridge. 
This alerting is very important; and as regards the argument presented here, it is clear that Literary Analysis could contribute significantly for a clearer perception of cultural discourses.

The company chairman asks her to drop the case, suggesting instead that she get a role in the next TVI soap opera, which is sponsored by him. 
In this sense, the continuous presence of Itália throughout the text and her figuration in the love triad depend exclusively upon the interpretative effect provoked by the letter, which reconfigures the action through the superimposition of two distinct timeframes. 
The rest he improvised using the skins of the dogs that lived in the town. 
I think I'll just have a little drop of what's in this here tankard because... I want to fill it up!

Londres's retrospective action of remembrance may analogously reflect the act of rereading on the part of an interlocutor/reader. 
Lévinas is enlightening in this regard:

Reference is made to some of the historical events that separated the two neighbouring countries (moments when the power balance between them was less equal), and this leads to problems that highlight the importance of «the function of memory and the ways in which it is reconstructed in narrative and implicated in notions of self-identity» (cf.
They said that was Portugal (cf. 
I'm describing what happened in that story, in the first part. 
Soon people were flocking from afar, from the side of the island where it rained, to purchase his famous creations.

So, if you don't pay anyone, I'll come along and steal some of them to put on the table.
I was going after all sorts of things, but this one got her claws into me. 
This disconnecting «middle» is, anyway, a recurrent figure in Rosa, particularly in the texts where the possibility of a conclusion, of a clause for the «estórias», is questioned; and it is a figure that we can clearly link to the way in which Helmut Kohl identified the theme at the centre of this author's oeuvre as a moment in which the dichotomis are suspended, and where a going-out movement becomes a coming-back.
Which in itself would draw comment in Clarabóia.
All the townsfolk had bought at least one of these objects, which they kept for a rainy day that never came - a sensible move, really, as we never know what tomorrow will be like, even when we're half way through today. 
The marriage took place on the day of Portugal's christening, which confused the guests,

However, Wall Street's piece entitled Nova Iorque (2008) reveals in its very name a certain attitude of affirmation that is typical of the able-bodied subject towards the disabled (despite the choreographer's conscious purpose, as he has manifested publically); that is to say, it is an approach that signals a relationship of assymmetricality, which at times characterises the actions of those mediators of supposedly inclusive art. 
The truth is that, in my memory, she had grown in beauty.
Old woman bears no child

From the moment when the rereading becomes the mode of action of a narrator that «withdraws into memory» (Candido1964:

With this, Londres seems to be suggesting that the «remainder», the bit that is missing, is not necessarily (or not only) at the end of the line; it could be encountered through a retroactive movement, a hermeneutic movement, through a «live reworking» of what has already been said, but which nevertheless does not prevent the end of the line being reached. 
Who's sponsoring us? 
Dance is, thus, a privileged territory for the encounter with the identity and aesthetic questions that form the subject of this essay. 
Whatever sort of sheep they are! 
Unlike what happens with the novel's secret, the episode openly stages the rereading and its inevitably deferred temporality by making the letter explicitly into a figure en abîme, not only of other messages that arrive late (the «sexo pertencido» of Alemanha), but also of the very functioning (posthumous and recursive, but still operational) of Londres's narration: 
When Jonas learned of Flora's prophecies, he realised that something important was about to happen.

«This is the way I spend my time-mulling over the past » (literally, « rewinding my days»)
And that's not to mention all the terrible things they've done to us in the past: 
Right, here we have a miniature Zorro, 
Three different aspects of stereotyping are evident in the narrative episodes that describe social prejudices: 
Hot chicks... Better than her. But, my friend...that's that! 
What most fascinated Maria was the tale of the harpies, who captured the body of the dead and stole their love. 
From the hunchbacks and lame figures of the 17th century to the pathologies of the body explored in 19th century realism, there is a vast gallery of examples of this alternative corporality.

He still didn't have a name, though later on they would learn that it was Pedro. 
However, the way the centre is configured here affirms the «lacuna» that prevents the text from being completed. This exerts its effects on the temporal axis beyond the suspension that forms the break, though a paradoxical bifurcation that the «remainder» gives rise to. 
Nicholas King points out the complexities of the «relationships between memory, identity and narrative:
The contestants are going to walk along here, on the catwalk.
This paper compares Miguel Torga's account of his first visit to Europe (which took place in December 1937/January 1938) in the two existing versions (1939 and 1971) of A Câmara de Lisboa - O Quarto Dia. It concentrates on two central aspects that are inextricably connected: 
Research in the domain of Social Psychology may help us interpret the various auto-imagotypes, hetero-imagotypes and cultural clashes represented in Literature (and in Art generally).

This concept, which has had great weight in the history of philosophy, was adopted for literary analysis by Paul Ricoeur, who built on Coimbra's notions. Thus, the process of comprehension is not reduced to a mysterious communion of souls, but, on the contrary, involves participation in a network of meanings created by a community (which continues to interpellate me even today), and which is constantly being reconfigured within a historical process of continuous formation (cf. 
So? What time is it now? 
That's the problem.

which was founded in 2003, on the island of Madeira. This itinerant group, which operates on a professional basis, has produced around two shows a year, and is characterised by a series of features that today defines this area: 
Although the notion of intention is complex and controversial, it is understood here in accordance with Santana Lopes's conception, according to which "there is no work that does not involve the active encounter between an intention and an attention", while the work of art is «an intentional aesthetic object with an aesthetic function».
Don't accuse me of some mistake that I made and I don't know what it was. It could be various things. 
The pig is hoisted up, then it's skinned and its innards are removed, it's washed, then after it's been washed, it's cut in half. It's washed again, and hung up to drain till tomorrow morning, and then tomorrow morning it's stacked away in the freezer. 
Indeed, the imagery in Grande Sertão speaks of nothing else, from a midpoint in a crossing that could not be seen in time.

Later, Salvador catches her in flagrante with Libério and leaves her. 
He would strut about with his chest puffed out.

That was why Dona Rosa, who lived in the same house, ran around after the pigs, calling them for lunch.

This can be seen in the description of the China bohemians with which the narrator identifies (although, if we take account of the fact that Bill Clinton is an inversion of the name Igreja Católica, this may be only partially), whom he presents as differentiated individuals, each of whom is named: 
So, who's the first?... 
Racked with doubt, Governo left, heading confusedly into the streets of the town, swearing the death of the Boy of the Everlasting Photos, the future intruder, the stranger, the alien. 
He would link up his prodigious sentences like someone knitting a scarf with the alphabet. 
Apolónio had inherited the business from his great-grandfather, the founder of both the town and the umbrella company (or the `umbrellarian corporation' as he preferred to call it). 
As he was thin, and had never physically hurt anyone, he took the blows like a martyr, losing all his teeth. 
I was used to doing it. 
This function is, to some extent, radicalised in Londres's comment, because the break becomes a permanent crisis point in the work; it is played off against the possibility of a definitive limit («put a full stop») - though of course this does not happen in the end. 
Ambiguity thus tends to contaminate all dance involving the disabled body. 
OK. If she's 43...
But this is like toffee. 
You're my daughter and you'll do what I tell you to do!

In fact, literary representation grounds its narrative sequentiality on the configuration of fictional episodes that depict characters interacting in realistic situations. This leads (within the fictional creations) to generalization processes that are more or less well-known - such as the configuration of "types", or recourse to stylistic and compositional procedures such as caricature, ridicule and the comic. 
And did either of you see anything about him saying he was going to take part in the Carnival procession, in the fancy-dress parade?

And it came, carried back and forth by herders and travellers.
Cheaper material would go for a few eggs. 
Panic takes hold of the Portuguese population and the police authorities.

In the conjugation of these effects, the role played by Itália throughout the novel is decided; she becomes the figure of constitutive revision. 
Haven't you had lunch yet? 
Who do you think I am? 
This dislocating «middle» is actually a recurrent figure in Rosa, particularly in texts that question the possibility of reaching a conclusion allowing closure for the «stories».

This culture clash becomes the main theme of the book, as the plot centres upon a romance that develops between Francisco, a Portuguese poet, and Sporting, a Catalan novelist.

There are moments of great complicity and even humour in this work, such as the malevolent association between the particularly Portuguese nature of the disease and one of its most well-known symptoms:

Wall Street (like António Guterres, who created Levanta os Braços Como Antenas Para o Céu [«Lift up your Arms Like Antennae to the Sky»] with the same group) succeeds better in his attempt to rewrite disabled subjectivity, allowing moments of authentic «presentation», in biographical episodes and figurations taken from daily life which present the raw crude materiality of disability.

but it wasn't necessary to be very smart to win against Socorro. 
the repetition in the determination of the subject's place also acquires significance in the light of the conclusion, delimiting Itália's place in the love triad as a place that is temporally marked (and subject to a position that is already occupied, unlike what happens with Alemanha and Rússia).

The text that arrives late to correct the text, which nevertheless remains, is the figure par excellence of errata. The delayed letter marks the eruption of the past into the present, creating an insoluble temporal bifurcation that constitutes both the action and the reflexive narrative that together make up Grande Sertão:

Hum... Bach... nine... Kiss/Slap! 
As she is primarily a leg model, this will be the first time that her face will appear on television. 
However, Wall Street's piece entitled Nova Iorque (2008) reveals in its very name a certain attitude of affirmation that is typical of the able-bodied subject towards the disabled (despite the choreographer's conscious purpose, as he has manifested publically); that is to say, it is an approach that signals a relationship of assymmetricality, which at times characterises the actions of those mediators of supposedly inclusive art.

Formulation such as the following are significant:

Stereotypes emerge from social relationships, and precisely because they are inserted into the social dynamics, they are susceptible to change. That is to say, they may or may not be activated; they may be displayed in a mild or salient form; they adapt and fluctuate like «variations on a theme» (Cinirella 1997, 46).
