This paper presents reflections on the act of writing, in its perspective of invention, contextualized in situations in the border between life and death, setting a powerful exercise about itself by a particular group of writers. It was used as material letters compiled and published in book form, written by people sentenced to death, victims of nazism; on it is the perception of the awareness of imminent death and the proven fact. The objectif is go further in the studies of the act of writing, in the perspective of its metamorphosis and of who writes and/or reads, estabilished on self narration and self interpretation. This article anchors in language studies and reflections on the act of writing raised by the writer, placed by trivial matters, simple language, almost pure intentions and an incessant desire to be remembered, focusing on an exercise of itself. By reading, it seems to set up a bond and indissoluble border between life and death and life brought by the living forms of language.
