Vozes narrativas : um concerto em cemitério de pianos

Abstract

José Luís Peixoto emerges in Portuguese literature scenario with a particular writingstyle. By exploring different language aspects and with a huge literary production, Peixoto calls attention because of the way he builds the narrators of his books. This study aims to look into the verification of the different constitution of the narratorspresent in the novel Cemitério de Pianos, published in 2006. By reading the work, along with a theoretical corpus constituted by Wayne Booth, Terry Eagleton, Maria Lúcia Dal Farra and Robert Humphrey, we analyze the processes of creation and formation of these narrators, as well as the presentation techniques of a fragmented narrative. Thus, our analysis looks for features that indicate the characteristics of a narrator who destabilizes the reader, who, in turn, reconfigures the literary work.
