description This article attempts to approximate two planes: reality and fantasy, in the story “Clandestine Happiness” published in the book with the same title. This story narrates the reality of an adult woman who explores childhood fantasies in a time in which she is subjected to cruel games of mockery, that develop to a preocupying level, in a passivity that sometimes reminds the reader of a trapped prey. Nevertheless, the same protagonist who was once subjected to her classmate ́s cunning, now exercises full control in the position of narrator before her readers. She passes from character to constructor of the text, playing with the senses of the reader who is now engaged in the fictional story .

Este artigo trata da aproximação dos planos de realidade e fantasia especialmente no conto “Felicidade Clandestina” publicado no livro com o mesmo título, em que os dois segmentos passam a disputar o mesmo espaço. A realidade de uma mulher adulta que resgata fantasias da infância num curso de tempo em que, como personagem, fora submetida a imprevisíveis jogos, tratada com ludíbrio, chegando a situações consternadoras, numa passividade que, por vezes, lembra uma presa acuada. No entanto, a mesma protagonista antes submetida à astúcia da colega de escola, agora na posição de narradora, exerce pleno controle sobre o leitor. Passa de personagem à construtora do texto, jogando com os sentidos daquele que está imerso na história fictícia.
