Abstract

The work discusses some aspects presented in Fausto Fawcett’s novel Favelost. The narrative has similar elements of the ciberfiction and its main aspect is the use of linguistic resources such as neologism, irony, pun, etc. Therefore, the exploration of language became literacy language revitalization without the focus in a social perspective, which has been one of the main feature of the contemporary Brazilian literature. With the readings of nihilism that were made by Pelbart (2013), the profusion of signs that inscribe in the body of narrative could be a sample of the redemption of human being and the literature through symbolic representation.
