O papel das cartas e das confissões na ficção de Fernando Sabino

Abstract

Before his death in 2004, Fernando Sabino published much of the correspondence exchanged with his friends since the 1940s. Besides the correspondence, it was brought about, by the author, the unpublished fictional novel Os movimentos simulados and some autobiographical reprints and revised editions. Although the events of the last ten years of the writers life brought into focus an intersection between a rebuilt past and a fictional present, between 1946 and 1956, it was already possible to detect this close association even before, which constitutes the main reason for the movement of his work.
