This abstract analyzes the Angolan novel Bom dia camaradas from the Af­rican writer Ondjacki, in a manner which we problematize the significance of the memoir and the childhood at the building of the narrative descrip­tion. Let us verify bythe literary work, a double reflection novel, once the Angolan post-independence reality presents itself as being transfigured by the child as the main narrator, such as the other supporting voices around the entire narrative, bringing to the protagonist the news from the civil war in this African country.
