SILVA, Rafael Guimarães Tavares da. Ejoyctment of Words: Re-Reading the First Diaries of Carolina Maria de Jesus. Rev. Estud. Fem. [online]. 2019, vol.27, n.2, e54825.  Epub 01-Jun-2019. ISSN 1806-9584.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1806-9584-2019v27n254825.

Carolina Maria de Jesus’ debut work, Quarto de despejo [Child of the Dark], was a bestseller, although her next works were shrouded in a deep silence in Brazil. Seeking to situate this silence in the question related to the figure of a writer who is “poor, black and woman”, I intend to re-read her first diaries and suggest certain aspects of her fertile work with language, demonstrating a powerful and emancipatory process of subjectivation, albeit not free of ambiguities.

Palavras-chave : Literary theory; Self writing; Deconstruction; Brazilian literature; Carolina Maria de Jesus.
