Abstract

This article aims to stablish a comparative analysis between the tale The Third Bank of the River, by Guimarães Rosa, and Sleepwalking Land, the first novel by the Mozambican writer Mia Couto. The theme that the analysis focuses on is crossings, places and non-places in both stories; as related to remake the language and the narrative structure as to the message proposed in each one of the stories.
