| Sumario: | In this essay I analyze the novel A morte e o meteoro, published in 2019 by Joca Reiners Terron. I organized the text into three complementary parts, by which I invite the reader to accompany my arguments. In the first part, I present the writer in his place of enunciation and discuss the narrative strategies used in his book. In a second part, I relate the novel to the moment in which it was produced and the temporalities that emerge from the narrative. And, finally, I discuss Terron's ideological orientations in order to evidence his writing as a form of sociopolitical action. |
