Abstract

This text aims to analyze the homoerotic relations in Al Berto’s and João Gilberto Noll’s literary works, choosing, as a starting point, Anthony Giddens’ notion of self reflexivity. To understand how the characters act, how they speak with their bodies is imperative to interpret the “support of the undocking”, a Giddens’ concept adopted here to read/see these wandering identities. Thus, in the novels Lunário and A fúria do corpo, some homoerotic experiments can be considered bodies reflexivities within the disconnected self relations.
