Abstract

This article aims to conduct a study around the temporal distortion in Maria de cada porto (1959), by the writer Moacir Costa Lopes. The novel’s temporal configuration is constituted by the tension existing between the chronology of hours, marked by the present of the narration, and the remembrances that bring evocations to the past time, establishing psychological time. This study is based on the theoretical terminologies of Boris Tomachevski (1976) and Gérard Genette (1995) on the configuration of time in the novel.
