Our aim is to raise questions about the relationship between the photographic narrative and the literary narrative that have in common the choice for the northeastern ambience. Therefore, the photographic essay made by Evandro Teixeira to be included in the reissue of the book “Vidas Secas”, of Graciliano Ramos, became our object of analysis. We also search for a better understanding about the manner in which the personal references of the photographer and the thread constituted in the literary plot emerge in photographic representation.
