Abstract
This essay proposes notes on the specificities of reading literary texts as an experience, potentially forming new meanings for the reader, and subversive to the language of power, with its normative and normative discourses of daily life. To this end we conducted a narrative literature review on the subject, and divided this text into four central axes: in the first, we present some conceptions about literature, literary text and literary reading; in the second, we discuss about individual and listening reading, assuming that such modality allows the reader a creative and critical experience from the production of meanings derived from the encounter with the text. This point is closely related to the third, literary reading as an experience; and finally, we present interpretations about literary reading as an experience of subversion of the watchword and the language of power. This dialogue led us to conclude that literary reading may represent a resistance to the naturalizations of the daily institute, because it reveals itself as a scope for the production of singularities, prompting the reader to question the concrete world around him and his hegemonic discourses.
