This article tries to situate the importance of Corola (2000), by Claudia Roquette-Pinto. Starting from elements that organize the figurations and ambiguities of its simulated lyricism, it identifies the peculiarity of the feminine voice that, imprisoned in the scene of a garden, speaks in the poems. The textual analysis shows the mechanisms of fantasies of self-destruction and the study of fear as essential elements of a poetry that expresses the experience of a body that does not want to die.
