Abstract
The novel Torto arado (2019), by Itamar Vieira Junior, organizes its plot from the confluence of Afro-Amerindian times, voices, and imaginaries. The narrative is argued here to shape the violence of the Brazilian colonial past, at the same time that it constitutes itself as a political and utopian fiction, using symbolic systems and ancestral cosmologies as elements of resistance and reconfigurative force of history.
