We Will investigate in this work the processes of alterities and identities that occur in characters in the works O outro pé da Sereia(2006) and Antes de nascer o mundo by Mia Couto, beyond the memory forgetfulness on the crossing on which these characters represent the everyday life in Mozambique in towns, villages and cities. The alterity and culture on which these texts are inscribed indicate the differences that constitute the social life which is a permanent source of tension and conflict. Based on this guidance, we forward the analyses on the referring works, discussing such opinions from the postcolonial theory with the studies of Bonnic (2000), Hall (2006) and Bhabha (2003) on cultural identity and diaspora; Canclini (2007) and Ortiz (2000) on issues such as globalization and internationalization. Regarding to questions of alterity and poetics of relation, Glissant (2005) emphasizes the fact that mankind cannot lead the world and therefore be instinctively led to conceive the world with others, at the same position which for the author means one of the first conditions of the relation poetics In memory we associate our discussions with Le Goff (1996) , Seligmann (2003) and Ecléa Bosi (1994), and the author who discuss the Portuguese-speaking African literature: Afonso (2004), Abdala Júnior (2003) Tânia Macedo (2007), Rita Chaves (2008), Bezerra (2007), Duarte (2010), among other ones. Thus, the analyses of this study lead us to understanding of literary universe of Mia Couto’s work and its relation with the world that fits in each conception of territories and diluted borders.
