A Verdade Sufocada - A História que a Esquerda não quer que o Brasil conheça (in English: The Suffocated Truth - The story that the left does not want Brazil to know) (2006) is the second memoir[3] of the retired colonel of the Brazilian Army, Carlos Alberto Brilhante Ustra, the first Brazilian military man convicted of practicing torture during the military dictatorship in Brazil (1964-1985).[4]

The book presents Ustra's version of the left-wing armed struggle in Brazil during the military dictatorship, as well as recounting his experiences as head of DOI-CODI, one of Organs executing agencies of political repression, in which opponents of the dictatorship were tortured and murdered.[5][6][7][8] According to Ustra and his family, the book was boycotted by bookstores at the time of release and the family needed to finance their print runs because of publishers' denials.[9] The book received attention after being quoted by Jair Bolsonaro during his vote for Dilma Rousseff's Impeachment in 2016.[10] In the weekly ranking of Folha de S.Paulo on June 4, 2016, the work was the sixth best-selling nonfiction book in Brazil.[9] In 2018, it reached its 14th edition.[10] The book received criticism from the academic world. Historians and sociologists warned of the book's unreliability as a historical document.[7]

The book

The book

The book brings the military version of what happened during the dictatorship, with a greater focus on the attacks by leftist groups during that period. He counted on the collaboration of the author's wife, who is a historian, giving focus to the context of the Cold War.[10]

Criticism

For UFPE sociology professor Luciano Oliveira, "as a history book, 'A Verdade Sufocada' is null. As a historical document, it serves a purpose: it is yet another confirmation that, within what I usually call modern sensibility, torture is an action that, regardless of its results, disgraces the person who employs it."[11]

Neusah Cerveira, PhD in Social History from FFLCH/USP, draws attention to the absence of explicit bibliographic citations in the body of the text. She also says that "it is an extensive book, although superficial. With a strong title, but not very deep".[7]
