    Based on the relations among history, literature and the press, we sought to understand the construction of the publishing success of the work A Casa dos Espíritos by the Chilean writer Isabel Allende, in Brazil, throughout the 1980s. The research was done through the analysis of the diffusion and circulation of this work in newspapers of greater circulation of Brazil at the time - Folha de S. Paulo, O Globo, O Estado de S. Paulo and Jornal do Brasil -, one of the newspapers of the "feminist press", Mulherio, and the Leia Livros newspaper of literary releases announcement. Considering the foreign influence in our publishing market and the previous success obtained in Spain, country where it has been first published, we will use as source the periodicals La Vanguardia and El País, both from Spain, as well as literary reviews and reports published in newspapers in Chile, in the decade of 1980. It is the first novel by this writer, who had self-exiled himself in Venezuela, and it was released in Spain and Chile in 1982 with the title: La Casa de los Espíritus. Considered by the specialized critics a success just a short time after its launch, the book covers the history of Chile of the twentieth century, the transition from the rural world to an urban world, brings novelized historical accounts of the violence of the Chilean dictatorship of General Augusto Pinochet, presents women with magical powers of the Del-Valle Trueba family (which allows us to characterize the work as a fantastic narrative of magical realism) and makes constant references to feminist and women's movements that were occurring in Latin America. In Brazil, the book is released in 1984 and enters the list of best sellers in the same year. We consider that this analysis contributes to the elucidation of aspects of the historical context of diffusion and circulation of literature in Brazil at the time. For this, the contributions of Raymond Williams and Antonio Candido are fundamental references, in order to reflect on the intersections between history and literature. The theoretical-methodological reflections have increased with discussions on aspects of the Brazilian publishing market in the 1980s, in order to understand the sociocultural context of the period, which allowed the work to gain space.
