OS ESPAÇOS EM K. RELATO DE UMA BUSCA A PARTIR DE OSMAN LINS

Abstract

Abstract: This paper examines the construction of fictional space in K.: Relato de uma busca by Bernardo Kucinski, through the theoretical lens of Osman Lins in O Espaço Romancesco (1976). The analysis focuses on how spaces interact with the protagonist’s emotions, memories, and personal transformations, serving as meaningful narrative elements. Through dissimulated, reflexive, and direct forms of setting, the places K. visits during his search for his missing daughter become symbolic expressions of his inner life, revealing a spatial experience that is deeply subjective.
