"The Crossing of the Red Land - the saga of Jewish refugees in Brazil" (orig. title in Portuguese: "A Travessia da Terra Vermelha – uma saga dos refugiados judeus no Brasil"), is a 2007 novel by Brazilian author Lucius de Mello.

This historical novel details the lives of German Jewish refugees in the 30s and 40s, who found themselves living in the wilderness of Paraná, in Southern Brazil, while escaping Hitler's regime. To compose this romance, the author interviewed direct descendants of these pioneers, in Brazil and in Germany.
