Literature is a door that opens up to different discussions. When reading "A Streetcar Named Desire" (1947) by Tennessee Williams, the reader can wonder what led Blanche to her catatonic state or analyze the Kolwaski couple's relationship. That's the charmof literature, making the reader question, travel, be enchanted and indignant. From this perspective, this work will seek to analyze the relationship between the Kolwaski couple and what led Blanche to catatonia. To this end, Tennessee, the writer who gives life and color to this work, will be presented, as will his writing process and, finally, how this work is a portrait of his memories. For this, the theoretical basis is Costa (2020), Rodrigues (2011) and Silva (2005) and the methodology used was a systematic bibliographical review.
