摘要：This article intends to place Paulo Lins’ novel Cidade de Deus and Ferréz’s novels Capão Pecado and Manual prático do ódio in the panorama of Brazilian contemporary “new-realisms”, evaluating thematic choices and narrative techniques and procedures. Also, this study analyses the originality of their prose, noting the cautious distance of their aesthetic philosophies and the fundamental elements of their literary universe –poverty, crime and inequality– from any extreme culture of violence. The analysis of this books seeks to reveal another perspective on the issue of the image of the city and urban poverty, usually sensationalist, and to contribute to a better understanding of the complexity of everyday violence in poor urban communities.
