In this paper is about an analysis of the spatial features within the narrative framework of the novel The House on Arnus Square (Samar Attar 1998),the English version of an Arabic original published ten years earlier entitled al-Bayt ft Sahat ' Arnus. This research is mainly focused on the representations the spatial elements carry out in the text in a diachronic way, with the purpose of exploring the limits between the objective and subjective levels combined by the author through personal reflections, the referents of which are in relation not only with historical realities but also with interferences coming from her own personal experiences. With the analysis of the spatial term 'house' and its projections, in the syntagma my Damascene house, it can check how the author develops this spatial element of the house within narrative framework of the novel The House on Arnus Square in a diachronic way. Then, she combines personal reflections and their referents which are in relation not only to historical realities but also to interferences coming from her own personal experiences. Therefore, we can establish the following link between the house, the city of Damascus and the Syrian country.
