La novela 'La Desaparición de la Santa' de Jorge Amado, publicada en 1989, narra la historia de Dom Maximiliano von Gruden, director del Museo de Arte Sacro de Salvador, Bahía, quien organiza una exposición de arte religioso. La pieza central es una estatua de Santa Bárbara del Trueno, prestada por una iglesia. Sin embargo, la estatua desaparece al llegar a Salvador, desencadenando una búsqueda caótica. La trama mezcla realidad y mito, con la intervención de la entidad espiritual yoruba, Yansan, y la participación de figuras brasileñas de la época, como Caetano Veloso.
Jorge Leal Amado de Faria, known as Jorge Amado, was a Brazilian writer of the modernist school. He remains the best-known of modern Brazilian writers, with his work having been translated into some 49 languages and popularized in film, including Dona Flor and Her Two Husbands in 1976, and having been nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature at least seven times. His work reflects the image of a Mestiço Brazil and is marked by religious syncretism. He depicted a cheerful and optimistic country that was beset, at the same time, with deep social and economic differences.
