Mix Liter\u00e1rio<\/a> gets to its second edition in a year of fight against censorship on books produced by LGBTQI+ authors in Brazil. Regarding this context, there are some news. This year, we\u2019ll occupy an important space for the literary events circuit: M\u00e1rio de Andrade Library. Taking advantage of the occasion to highlight M\u00e1rio\u2019s homosexuality, often neglected within the academy. We\u2019ll also be honouring Vange Leonel, fundamental figure in the development and visibility of a national lesbian art movement. Other important innovation is the opening of our programming to non-fictional books, literary journalism and comics, editorial segments each time more relevant. Finally, we\u2019re proud to announce the first Mix Liter\u00e1rio Award<\/a>, awarded to the year\u2019s best author, during the general awarding ceremony of the festival. Thereby, we expect Mix Liter\u00e1rio<\/a> to become even broader, and turn into a tool of resistance for our community in such dark times.<\/em><\/p>\n

To this talk, we invite Gabriela Soutello, author of Ningu\u00e9m vai lembrar de mim (No one will remember me), contemplated on the first edition of the debuting authors publishing contest from S\u00e3o Paulo\u2019s Secretariat of Culture; Rafael Jo\u00e3o, author of Pelicano (Pelican); and Raimundo Neto, author of Todo esse amor que inventamos para n\u00f3s (All the love we created for us), winner of Pr\u00eamio Paran\u00e1 de Literatura in 2018.<\/p>\n

\n<\/em>NOV 17<\/a> – 7pm @ Biblioteca M\u00e1rio de Andrade<\/a><\/strong>
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

Literature made by LGBTQI+ people has been tracing a new urban geography, revealing its places of discard, ins and outs. The tracks that subvert the daily body. These characters are often in the night and experience a suspicious and dreamlike existence, in which identities are diffuse and smoky. Beyond the presence of Marcelino Freire, whose largely accoladed body of work always brings this scenery, we\u2019ll be talking to authors Cristina Judar, whose recent romance Oito do Sete (winner of Pr\u00eamio S\u00e3o Paulo de Literatura) explores similar cartographies, and Agnaldo de Assis Nascimento, who just released his debut Horses, an epic of punk art of sorts, with hints of queer, winner of the first debuting authors publishing contest from S\u00e3o Paulo\u2019s Secretariat of Culture.<\/p>\n

\n<\/em>NOV 18<\/a> – 7pm @ Biblioteca M\u00e1rio de Andrade<\/a><\/strong>
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

Literature made by LGBTQI+ people isn\u2019t of a single style or language. Nor is it only aimed at their own community. The authors in this table are striking examples of how a writer may transit between classic literary genres, inserting new elements such as Brazilianity, diversity, specific existential and historical issues. In this conversation are gathered: Cidinha da Silva, who explores many genres from poetry to fantasy; Jarid Arraes, who went from cordel to a tale in her recent Redemoinho em dia quente (Whirlpool in a hot day); Samir Machado de Machado, who explores classic adventure genders featuring queer characters; and Santiago Nazarian, who\u2019s been exploring horror in his bizarre existentialism

\n<\/em><\/p>\n

Some great pieces of journalism and non-fiction work have been an important medium in the fight for stigmatised LGBTQI+ people\u2019s visibility.
