RESUMO:

The main objective of this work is to reflect on the repression, torture and violence established by the military dictatorship represented by Milton Hatoum in the novels A noite da espera (2017) and Pontos de fuga (2019), first and second books that make up the trilogy O lugar mais sombrio, through the bias of the relations between Literature and Politics, touching the meanings of memory and identity, presented by scholars such as: Benjamin Abdala Júnior (2007); Alfredo Bosi (2013); Antonio Candido (2000), Jacques Le Goff (2003); Stuart Hall (2006); Paul Ricoeur (2007) and Edward Said (2003). The selected narratives welcome the historical-social theme in its textual configuration to transform it into fiction, but it is not enough to conceive the novel only as a denunciation, it is necessary to understand how this critical vision is constructed without prejudice to aesthetics. Hatoum goes beyond the particularities of the novel-denouncement of the Military Dictatorship, paying attention to the reflection on the scars that remain from that dark period, which reopen with each memory and/or mention of the return of facts that cannot be buried, memories that must be (re) activated in order not to (re)experience the horrors of the leaden years of the Military Dictatorship. When discussing fictionalization and the aesthetic treatment given to historical-social material, the importance of memory in the process of (de)forming the identity of Brazilian youth in the 1960s and 1970s, reconstituted in the narrative under discussion, must be emphasized. As for the formation of identity, the novels selected as the corpus of the research manifest the traits of the historical moment and the political and social reality addressed in them.
