O artigo apresenta a forma poética, de acordo com Meschonnic (2002), do nome das personagens em Cinzas do Norte (2005), partindo da intenção do autor abstrato em intensificar o nome da personagem principal Mundo, pois ao ser chamado constantemente de Mundo, a personagem transmite a experiência que ele vai ter para além de Manaus, do Norte, mas para o mundo. As experiências que Mundo terá a partir dessas viagens e do próprio contexto na obra o colocam como personagem de um romance de formação
