The following article proposes a reading of Giovana Madalosso's Brazilian novel Tudo pode ser roubado (2018), based on the idea of performativity, presented throughout the work of Judith Butler (2017), applying it to the characters of the narrative and its apparent dialogue with O Guarani (1857), by José de Alencar, in order to question not only the construction of gender identities, but also the construction of a national identity within the subject's own ontology in the characters of the narrative.
