  Abstract:   Linearity and Asymmetry: the Father Figure in Glittering. This article focuses on the father-child relationship as presented in the novel Glittering written by Göran Tunström. The absence of the mother transforms the inner thoughts of the main character, leading to an unique spiritual connection between the father and his son. Trying to fill in the gaps left by the dead mother, Pétur will imitate, substitute and abandon Halldór in order to find his inner self.

Key words: father-child relationship, identity, fatherhood, communication.
