The author published two other volumes before returning to Brasil: Le départ sous la pluie and Œil de bœuf. The purpose of the present study is to present comments about a literary work remains unknown to readers and ignored by critics. The said study will be guided by the reflections on pastiche proposed by Genette, Decout and Aron, and will review the context of publication and the list of those honored by the pastiche imitations.
