Resumo: The present paper analyzes the interrelation between child­hood memories narrators and their fictional writing, in order to apprehend the fictional as­pects within the memory report. Thus, the article proposes to analyze the narrative texture of Os da minha rua, by the Angolan writer Ondjaki in order to understand how the relationship between what is lived and written is configured. As the story unfolds, the writer mixes the understanding about the childhood’s space, imagined time and past, with what was invented or lived, by means of the child’s point of view which guides these memories leading to an intimist reading, that allows the reader the election of an autobiographic status or not. Ondjaki’s writing refers to childhood space and time, to what was invented or lived, in which the child’s point of view guides the memories within a poetic, colorful and synesthetic language. Within this writing process the voice of child-narrator – who is not necessarily the writer – gets closer to memory and reinvents possible historical facts which happened in Ango­la. These stories take place in non-chronological events, and can be true or not.

Assim, propõe analisar o tecido narrativo de Os da minha rua, do escritor angolano Ond­jaki, a fim de compreender como se configura as relações entre o vivido e o escrito, entre o tempo e a experiência, dos quais interdepende a vivência humana. Nesses desdobramentos o escritor mescla, sob o espaço da infân­cia, memórias e passados imaginados, conduzindo para uma leitura inti­mista e deixando ao leitor a eleição de estatuto autobiográfico ou não. Essa escrita remete para o lugar da infância, do inventado e do vivido, no qual o olhar infantil rege as memórias lapidando-se em uma linguagem poética, colorida e sinestésica. Nessas tessituras a voz do menino-narrador – que não necessariamente é o autor – aproxima-se da memória e reinventa histórias dos possíveis vividos em Angola, pois assim como na infância, as histórias acontecem em momentos não cronológicos, sejam elas verdadeiras ou não. ABEC Brasil2014-11-18info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer-reviewed ArticleArtigo avaliado por paresapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.uff.br/revistaabril/article/view/2964910.22409/abriluff.v6i13.29649ABRIL – NEPA / UFF; Vol. 6 No. 13 (2014): CHILDHOOD AND POST-COLONIALITY; 81-94Abril – NEPA / UFF; v. 6 n. 13 (2014): INFÂNCIA E PÓS-COLONIALIDADE; 81-941984-209010.22409/abriluff.v6i13reponame:Abril (Niterói)instname:Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF)instacron:UFFporhttps://periodicos.uff.br/revistaabril/article/view/29649/17190Copyright (c) 2018 Abril – NEPA / UFFinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSantos, Izabel Cristina da Rosa Gomes dos2019-08-09T09:26:52Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/29649Revistahttps://periodicos.uff.br/revistaabrilPUBhttps://periodicos.uff.br/revistaabril/oairevistaabril@vm.uff.br||nepa@vm.uff.br||uffnepa@gmail.com||idafalves@gmail.com1984-20901984-2090opendoar:2019-08-09T09:26:52Abril (Niterói) - Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF)false
