BENAVIDES BAILON, Jeovanny Moisés. The construction of the narrator in Rubem Fonseca. Analysis of the story "The collector". Letras [online]. 2020, vol.91, n.134, pp.199-210. ISSN 0378-4878.  http://dx.doi.org/10.30920/letras.91.134.10.

Rubem Fonseca's narrative is marked by the constant search of destiny and the human condition. His stories and novels deal with topics whose perspectives are oriented towards violence; in addition, his direct and unambiguous style has made him a very popular writer in the field of contemporary Latin American literature. In many of his works, this writer creates and recreates a fictional world by the hand of a narrator who is far from social conventions, a marginal who acts disassociated from law and pretends to subvert social roles, as it happens in his story "The Collector". In this sense, this document aims to investigate, through classical theoretical literary postulates, the way in which Rubem Fonseca constructs this figure in one of his most emblematic texts.

Keywords : Rubem Fonseca; Construction; Narrator; Fiction; Latin American literature.
