This dissertation focuses on regional history and literature, using for this the book Vila dos Confins, Mario Palmério, published by Editora Bookstore Jose Olympio, in the year 1956. The aim was to understand the conditions under which it was written, the historical context in which they formed, what was the reception to the book of a politician who treated politics as fiction. The issue that Palmério showed in his narrative was historically formed and registered somehow the social context of its own existence. The literary process of Vila dos Confins was approached by two moments, the writing and the reading. The first one about the relation to the moment of creation, that received influences of the time and society context where Mário Palmério lived; and the second for the receipt and the vitality of the work, the process of reading and interpretation of its readers and critics.
