Abstract

This article focuses on Teresa Noronha's recent novel, Tornado (2021), which received the Maria Velho da Costa Award from the Portuguese Society of Authors. From Edward Said's memoir Out of Place (1999), in which he explores the concept of exile as a way of inhabiting space with the constant awareness that one is not at home, I intend to examine how Noronha's novel surrenders and, at the same time, expands this condition so dear to Said. At the same time, I intend to analyze the complex network of so-called racial relations in Mozambique, and how they contributed to the formation of a self  marked by difference and, consequently, to its inner shattering. The feeling of estrangement leads the narrator to an inner exile and, later, an outer exile in search of herself.
