Abstract

In Grande Sertão: Veredas (1962), the narrator Riobaldo alludes to an interlocutor that listen his history. In Nove Noites (2002), written by Bernardo Carvalho, one of the narrators, Manoel Perna, achieves a similar procedure because he directs his narration for an interlocutor who we do not know as well. Therefore, there is a contact point between the both novels, by which happens the formation of individual identity since the contact with the unfamiliar. In this paper, we will discuss this contact point as a ‘point of suture’ of Stuart Hall and we will present which are the effects of these interlocution through a narratological basis.
