Entre a eutopia e a outopia: testemunho, decolonialismo e uma antropologia do devir em Um rio sem fim, de Verenilde Pereira by Rodrigo Simon de Moraes

“…Presentada como disertación de maestría en la Universidad de Brasilia, la novela Um rio sem fim (1998), de Verenilde Pereira, además de cuestionar las fronteras que separan el discurso poético del académico-científico, logra construir un marco decolonial sobre el cual se asienta una posición de resistencia a las fantasías fundantes de la idea moderna de utopía que, cinco siglos después de la llegada de los primeros colonizadores, siguen vivas en la región amazónica brasileña.
