Abstract

The article proposes a reading of the novel A Corte do Norte, of Agustina Bessa- Luís, like an example of neo-baroque aesthetics. The fragmentation of the speech, breaking with the narrative unity, and the dispersal of the truth, taken like a multiplicity of versions, are the ways of reading that drive us to the labyrinth proposed by the author: image of a non-centered world.
