The jury decided to award the author for "a work composed of true chronicles, (...) that captivate the reader by combining brevity and intensity of what is evoked and described".
In 'Autobiografia não autorizada' there is a literary prose "of very high quality, which transports the reader to what is the true value of the circumstances that make up the days", the jury justifies.
'Autobiografia não autorizada', whose first volume came out in 2021 and the second in 2023, is an edition by Tinta-da-China and brings together chronicles, personal accounts and memoirs that Dulce Maria Cardoso wrote for the magazine Visão.
It is almost impossible for an author to publish an unauthorized autobiography, because "an autobiography, from the outset, tells the truth, reports what happened", but because "there is a lot of invention in the chronicles, it is not a diary, it is not an autobiography that I would authorize", said Dulce Maria Cardoso in 2021, in an interview with Lusa, assuming that the title is also "a provocation".
"What I tell there is based on the truth, it does not mean that it is the truth. It can be fiction, I may not even start from real facts and put in true feelings, it is my life, I became a character, it is my fictionalized life, if only because of the memory that is always a mixture of fiction and imagination".
The Grand Prize for Chronicle and Literary Dispersals is an initiative of the Portuguese Writers Association in partnership with the Loulé city council and has a monetary value of 15,000 euros.
Dulce Maria Cardoso, an award-winning author of short stories, chronicles and novels -- namely "O Retorno", "Os meus sentimentos" and "Eliete" -, will receive the prize on May 9th, the day of the municipality of Loulé.
The jury was composed of Carlos Albino Guerreiro, Helena Carvalhão Buescu and Salvato Teles de Menezes.
In previous editions, the Grand Prize for Chronicle and Literary Dispersals distinguished works by José Tolentino Mendonça, Rui Cardoso Martins, Mário Cláudio, Pedro Mexia, Mário de Carvalho, Lídia Jorge, José Eduardo Agualusa and Miguel Esteves Cardoso.
