Espaços da violência na narrativa brasileira contemporânea

Abstract

This article emphasizes aspects of the violence as a relevant theme in the literary Brazilian production of the last decade. The examples situate the discourse narrative as a consequence of the disordered growth of the urban centers affected by economic models that generate unfairness and social inequality. The needy communities controlled by the drug trafficking effective themselves as the stage where still dominates the crime and the prostitution. The works of Paulo Lins, Ferréz, Luiz Alberto Mendes e Alessandro Buzo approximate the reader to the social reality that was lived by them.
