Abstract
In this paper, I analyze contemporary narratives in which cinema is present as an “intermedial reference”. In this regard, I draw on intermediality theories to study the books Onde andará Dulce Veiga? (1990), written by the Brazilian author Caio Fernando Abreu, and Short Movies, by the Portuguese writer Gonçalo M. Tavares. My aim is to investigate some types of exchange between literature and cinema, and to highlight the possible advantages this process brings for both medias.
