A influência do jornalismo literário na produção do livro todo dia a mesma noite

Abstract

The present work examines the book Todo dia a mesma noite , by the journalist Daniela Arbex, which tells the story of the tragedy that occurred at the Kiss nightclub in Santa Maria, Rio Grande do Sul, in 2013. At the same time, we analyze the interference of literary journalism in the production of this narrative and what contribution its participation provides to the study of the genre today. Our theoretical foundation is based, above all, on the definition brought by Pena (2006) for literary journalism, pointed out by the author as a “seven-pointed star”, and on studies by Borges (2013), which traces a path in the history of the genre, recognizing their points of divergence and agreement in relation to journalism and literature. Thus, it becomes possible to understand how the studied work became influenced by literary journalism.
