Caim: Sagrados Lacos Frouxos
Caim traz um texto muito mais descritivo. impressionista. antes um painel de vozes. sombra. crepitações. não preocupado com a fabulação. Uma história cuja estrutura se constrói com a linguagem. e vice-versa. O personagem principal desse livro é a linguagem. A fragmentação literária de sua construção. inspirada na sofisticada técnica narrativa de Mario Vargas Llosa. dá ao romance a forma de um mosaico. E é a aproximação e o cruzamento desses trechos que orientam o leitor na travessia de uma “ficção forçada a navegar por caminhos ainda mais reais que a realidade”.
