Uma novela de emigração

Antonio Candido’s text “Teresina e seus amigos” was published in a collection of essays by the author and in fact may also be considered an essay. Yet, at the same time, the text contains characteristics of a novel, notwithstanding the accumulation of factual data, which could lead some to include it in the category of “testimonial literature.” All of this seems to indicate the precariousness of the distinctions between genres in modern prose
