Carnival of reviews on Instagram

After six relatively quiet months, Instagram took advantage of Carnival to talk about O Grande Dia. About ten reviews were published and attracted hundreds of comments. Bookgrammers liked the characters, the style, the plot and the fact that the novel uses Carnival to analyze Brazilian society and its inequalities.

The prestigious literary magazine Quatrocincoum included O Grande Dia in its Listão da Semana during Carnival.
