The article reflects on Isabela Figueired’s Caderno de memórias coloniais. Although written in the first person, linking author-narrator-character, the romance criticizes the myth of testimonial truth, introducing fictional construction in its process. The ambivalence of memory touched by contradictory affects develops itself in the problematization of finished regimes of inteligibility. Therefore, it tries to preserve existential inscriptions inside the events, that are always revisited and reread, avoiding the archivist impulse of history.
