Abstract
By undertaking an intermedial reading of works in African novelistic writing, one once again opens the door to questioning the genre of the novel itself. The novelistic form is definitively part of a protean dynamic, and intermediality, as a phenomenon that structures both form and narrative play, enhances the dialogue between formal indicators. Thus, the interference of media within the realism of narrative reveals the mechanisms many authors employ to situate and connect everyday life. Media indicators take possession of and assert control over the novelistic space by ensuring a transgeneric mediation rooted in aesthetic foundations.
