The present investigation analyzes the topic of the return from the perspective of the protagonist of the novel Pale, but serene of Carlos Eduardo Zavaleta. It is a migrant subject who returns to the place of origin, despite its multiple displacements in three main spaces: the province, the capital and abroad. For the analysis, two categories are taken as the basis: migration as a social phenomenon and migrancia, based on the theory of Abril Trigo. It is concluded that the migrant subject maintains a close and permanent relationship between praxis (here-now) and memory (there-then) and, therefore, his return is necessary and even always motivated by the cultural and family elements that revolve around his conception of the world.
