Abstract

In Guerra em surdina: histórias do Brasil na Segunda Guerra Mundial, published in 1964, Boris Schnaiderman is what we could call an interpreter of himself and of more than 20,000 men of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force (FEB) who, like him, were summoned in 1944 to fight, in the conflict, on the side of the allies. Based on what he experienced as a small square in a destroyed Italy, the writer builds a narrative between factual and fictional accounts.
