Resumo

This essay attempt to develop a study on J.D. Salinger’s Uncle Wiggily in Connecticut (1948) in rela-tion to its adaptation to the cinema entitled My Foo-lish Heart (1950), regarding the review of literature of both masterpieces and an analysis of specific parts and scenes according to Mikhail Bakhtin’s theory of space--temporal relations in literature and arts. The repulse of Salinger to his story’s adaptation and his behavior of reclusiveness is also mentioned as a matter of con-textualization because of the difficulty of finding the film nowadays. Some other comparisons are made in the essay, putting Salinger, Edward Albee and Kathe-rine Mansfield in dialogue to each other through their literature.
