The narrative discourse used is the expression of the narrative mode of thinking that «deals - Bruner writes - in human or human-like intention an action and the vicissitudes and consequences that mark their course. It strives to put its timeless miracles into the particulars of experience and to locate the experience in time and place» (1986, Actual minds, possible words, Cambridge, Mass.: Harvard University Press). The fragments of the family histories are placed in specific urban spaces and temporality related to immigration, immersed in the city and connected to the right to housing, speculative property interests, and policies.
