Published in 2010, Landscape with dromedary is writer Carola Saavedra?s third novel. In 22 recordings addressed to Alex, her object of love, the narrator and character Erika recounts her love exile on an island not named, only described, shortly after the death of the other vertex of a triangular love relationship, the young Karen. In contact with this landscape, appropriated by the narrator, she writes. The need to share with Alex the sensations and emotions caused by this landscapemakes Érika compose her recordings, with the belief that sound is the most effective to reach the other the way we want.In these recordings, which make up a mourning journal, the narrator enters her intimacy, seeking to define the real places of her relationship with Alex and Karen. At the same time, she carries out her work of mourning, Erika reflects on the concepts of contemporary art and, at the end of the narrative, we find out that the recordings have become an installation. Through this transformation the recipient is no longer only Alex,but also the viewers and we, the readers, come into contact with the reflection of relational art, in which everything can be art, depending on the interpretation of the viewer. This work seeks to analyze the main themes present in the Saavedra?s novel: landscape, love, mourning, intimacy, addressing and art, approached by the narrator?s fragmentary discursive elaboration during her loving mourning work, to recall and make Karen present. Theorists like Roland Barthes, Julia Kristeva, Anne Cauquelin, Jacques Derrida, Zygmund Bauman, Nicolas Bourriaud and Michel Foucault assist us in the understanding of these issues, as well as the psychoanalytic perspective, through the light of Sigmund Freud.
