The fictitious narratives incorporate themselves as an additional way of interpretation of spatial reality. Geography and Literature built affinities that guided the dialogue between these fields. Thus, fictitious literature consists of a stimulating means of analysis and geographical knowledge, enabling to understand the material and immaterial aspects inherent in space. Thus, we chose the fictitious novel by José Lins do Rego, "The boy Richard (O moleque Ricardo)," as an important source of memory, document and representation of a certain reality. The trajectory of the main character, Ricardo, enables us to understand the institutions that made him migrate from Santa Rosa mill to Recife city. The saga of Richard, black child working as a semi-rented by Colonel José Paulino, urges us to interpret and analyze the countryside and the city. The historical context experienced by the author serves as a backdrop to show the everyday life of a newly liberated society, living in semi-slavery on the plantation and later as a laborer in urban space. The hardships experienced by blacks in the country or city can be observed in the novel. José Lins do Rego, novelist of the regionalist movement of 1930 reflected the panel of social problems in the Northeast of Brazil, especially the region of Zona da Mata of Pernambuco and Paraiba.
