Abstract

This article proposes a re-reading of the novel Natália (2010), by Helder Macedo. It shows some aspects about being a woman in Portugal, in accordance to the necessary plurality of the contemporary gender studies. This journal/memoir’s protagonist/author writes a hybrid narrative in which the memoir narration mingles with the journal form, swinging between the past and the modernity of her feminine condition, in a time in which this category is revisited and considered fluid.
