The multiple and diverse in “Vícios e virtudes”

Abstract

The Helder Macedo's narrative presents us the writer who meets a friend, also writer, and listens from him the story of his loves. The text inside the text leads us, in a spiral movement, from the author to the character, from the present to the past, from the contingent to the history. The present work aims to reflect on the games of masks formulated by Macedo from the overlapping of registers and narrative plans that is presented in his novel.
