Becoming a Character: An Analysis of Bernardo Carvalho's Nove noites

Abstract

O jovem antropologo Buell Quain, colega de Claude Levi-Strauss e alunopredileto de Ruth Benedict, prometia tornar-se uma figura proeminente nasua area. Aos 27 anos, o ambicioso antropologo viajou ao interior do Brasil para estudar a remota tribo Kraho que vivia na fronteira entre os atuaisestados de Tocantins e Maranhao. Em 2001, o ficcionista e jornalista brasileiro Bernardo Carvalho descobriu uma nota num artigo de jornal a respeito da morte assustadora do antropologo norte-americano. O misterio tornou-se sua obsessao e a base do seu romance Nove noites, publicado em 2002. Carvalho cria duas vozes narrativas para destrinchar as incertezas relacionadas coma vida de Quain e a irresolucao na tentativa de descortinar sua morte.O romance ressalta a relacao entre a realidade e a ficcao, o ato de construir uma personagem e os desafios inerentes a narracao. Este ensaio examinacomo a ambiguidade atraves da qual Carvalho constroi as identidades das suas personagens recusa entendimentos redutivos da verdade, e incentiva oportunidades para a criatividade e agenciamento do leitor.
