Book, Auto de João da Cruz[LS]

Language: Brazilian Portuguese. The Auto de João da Cruz, insofar as it is based on the secular theme of the dispute of a soul between the devil and the divine emissaries, all ending in a trial, undoubtedly forms a pendant with the Auto da Compadecida, five years later, but if in this one the comic element dominates everything, in the lines of the first we find several of the most lyrical moments in the work of Ariano Suassuna.
