This thesis aims to present in three narratives of Brazilian, Mozambican and Portuguese literature, namely, Vidas secas, Terra sonâmbula and A jangada de pedra, the presence of the land, considered in this analysis as one of the characters of the above titles, and its determined and definitive role on the other character's destiny from those novels. From a comparative perspective, the three fictions show the intrinsic relationship of the subject in its space of living and/or its path, shaping the life and behavior of the subject who suffers social and political influence by the surrounding circumstances. Vidas secas, for example, focus on the northeast, the barren land which affects the modus vivendi of the in habitants, and the omniscient narrator's life created by the Brazilian author. In Terra sonâmbula, it is necessary to mention that literature in Africa is an effort to keep history alive. In A jangada de pedra, there are the political, social, and historical relations resulting from the sudden displacement initiated by the Iberian Peninsula and how this movement transforms the daily lives of the Saramaguian characters that this study highlights. The possibilities of intercourse among Graciliano Ramos, José Saramago, and Mia Couto's work contributes to further communicative dynamic expansion among Brazil, Portugal, and Mozambique. As an additional comparative perspective, this thesis dialogs briefly among the narratives and its cinematographic work, prioritizing the land image. As a theoretical apparatus for analyzing a novel, in addition to the critical fortune related to each of the works and authors, this investigation started from theoretical premises dedicated to the studies of Geopoetics and names like Benjamin Abdala Júnior, Eduardo Lourenço, Zygmunt Bauman, Michel Collot, Umberto Eco, Letícia Malard, Ana Paula Arnaut, Sonia Brayner, Christian Metz, among others. Besides, interviews made with the authors contributed to enrich the present study
