About the Book

No seu discurso na igreja, o inquisidor havia ordenado que a população da cidade denunciasse os hereges. Carmen, a mulher de Manoel, dono da Quinta Souza e Cruz, é acusada de ser bruxa. A vida de todos na Quinta muda de uma hora para outra, na medida em que o processo avança. Será que Carmen conseguirá se livrar da acusação? Passado em Lamego no século XVI, o romance aos poucos vai descortinando diferentes situações e personagens. Os criados e trabalhadores da Quinta. Um comerciante sedutor. Josefa, mulher sem escrúpulos e disposta a tudo. Um mendigo que se intitulou Coxo e vive observando curioso as pessoas ao seu redor. Enquanto as tramas se desenrolam uma pergunta sempre fica no ar: quem denunciou Carmen?Elias Fajardo, jornalista, escritor e artista visual, finalista do prêmio Jabuti sobre o livro diz: No romance histórico se equilibram e se alternam uma visão aprofundada da época em que se passa a ação e o voo da ficção, aquilo que a fantasia e a imaginação do autor criam e acrescentam a este cenário.Rafael Valente encarou de frente este desafio. Em muitas leituras e longas sessões de pesquisa no Real Gabinete de Leitura, no Rio de Janeiro, ele mergulhou na Inquisição Portuguesa e examinou de perto muitas das suas contradições e particularidades. E aos poucos foi construindo uma narrativa em que, à primeira vista, chama a atenção a situação da mulher neste contexto.(...)É interessante também lembrar que numa narrativa longa muitas vezes os personagens considerados secundários vão se destacando pouco a pouco, a ponto de em muitos trechos adquirir um protagonismo. É o caso de Josefa, uma mulher disposta ao que der e vier. Ela não tem amarras nem escrúpulos, mas mesmo assim é dotada de extrema humanidade e por isto justamente se torna um dos pontos altos da narrativa.Neste contexto também é possível citar o Coxo, o Sapo, um ser que mendiga e vive a observar intensamente não só o ambiente que o rodeia mas principalmente os seres humanos e suas tramas, suas perversidades e seus desejos inconfessos. Sua aliança com Josefa acaba trazendo inesperados desdobramentos ao romance "A Bruxa de Lamego".(...)Finalmente, o equilíbrio entre situações particulares e detalhes da vida dos personagens e o que acontece numa sociedade presa a muitas amarras apontam as qualidades de uma narrativa que nos mostra que, para entender o presente e tentar visualizar o futuro, é necessário olhar com olhos atentos o nosso passado comum.
