Abstract
Developed as a city traced from Turin but never really identified with it, the urban space is conceived as an imagined city around the protagonist of the story, Ginia. This reading of the work allows us to unfurl the ritualistic aspects of this work by Pavese, in contrast to the aspects of myth, more commonly emphasized by the critics. The function of the diverse spaces in the narration is posed in the frame of the rite of passage from adolescence to adulthood of the protagonist.
