In the narrative, there is first a report on the cultural aspects from the author's original social environment, in which a process of disruption is triggered and leads to a stage of transculturalization.

To support my discussion of Graciliano Ramos's trajectory as an autodidact who writes an autobiographical account, I will first analyze the concept of autobiography in relation to Infância e Memórias do cárcere, considered by most critics to be autobiographical. I will then study Infância in terms of his literary work in general.
