Nameless and Placeless

By Gilles Lapouge
English

Amazonia. A baffling town peopled with immigrants from the Nordeste, from the South, and from the Rio Grande do Sul, with unusual women and men and surrounded with trees and insects. Looking for a cemetery a writer discovers an unlikely one, almost by chance. Finding only wooden crosses erected like tombs he tries to decipher the unfinished inscriptions, almost unreadable in this place which scarcely exists. Somewhere in time then, in an unlikely here, a writer, a traveler of some sort, proposes to us one of these places.
