Abstract

This article aims to analyze how the writer Rubem Fonseca represents the urban in his short-story “A arte de andar nas ruas do Rio de Janeiro”. Through metatextuality the author gets the city figure closer to the literary text, creating a narrative filled up with symbols, pondering about the art of writing and transforming the city into a propitious scenery for discussions about modernity and current literature.
