Creator of iconic paintings that intertwine with a canonical aesthetic of Brazilian representation—the landscape, the people, the festivals, the work, and the customs—Tarsila is one of the most acclaimed names in the history of Brazilian art, yet at the same time, a figure whose private life is very little known.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eRaised in a conservative family, landowners in the interior of São Paulo, Tarsila broke through the moralistic barriers of her time in the early 20th century to become a world-renowned artist. However, anyone who thinks her life was nothing but glorious is mistaken. Disappointments in love and betrayal, attacks on her art and honor, reactionary judgments against her attempt to break away from bourgeois life, and even accusations that she collaborated with Getúlio Vargas's political police are all indicative of the series of misfortunes that haunted her throughout her life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Mary Del Priore's writing style brings us closer to Tarsila in a unique way.

Vedina, a woman torn apart by a loveless marriage, abandons her son in a moment of despair and, immediately regretting it, returns to the place where she left him, finding no trace of him. This is the central event in the plot, which exposes the inner workings of a family—an alcoholic father, a controlling mother, twin brothers strained by their differences—which, like so many other families, becomes a place where the uniqueness of each individual is not embraced, creating cracks through which violence infiltrates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Told in two time periods—the day of abandonment and the days that preceded it—the novel advances like two waves until they collide and illuminate each other.

Despite their unplanned and tragic end due to Renato Russo's death in 1996, Legião Urbana remains present in the minds and hearts of millions. So it's no surprise that their songs also serve as inspiration for many active artists in Brazil, including writers. A prime example of this is the short story collection \"Como se não haver amanhã\" (As if there were no tomorrow), edited by writer Henrique Rodrigues, which features twenty stories inspired by Legião Urbana songs, each written by a different author. Besides being a tribute to the band that became a legend, \"Como se não haver amanhã\" (As if there were no tomorrow) is also a showcase of the best in contemporary Brazilian literature. Like the songs of the legendary band formed in Brasília, the stories deal with universal themes such as love, loss, anger, indignation, and death. And, like Legião Urbana's songs, the twenty stories in this book are delicate, profound, disturbing, and beautiful.

Em 1990, após ter publicado livros de poesia e literatura infantil, lançou seu romance de estreia, \u003cem\u003eFilmes proibidos\u003c\/em\u003e. Trinta e cinco anos depois de sua primeira publicação, a obra retorna ao público em nova edição pela Editora Record, com texto de orelha assinado por Giovana Madalosso e texto de quarta capa escrito por Rodrigo Lacerda.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eFilmes proibidos\u003c\/em\u003e, narrado em primeira pessoa, conta a história de uma mulher de trinta anos que atravessa uma série de experiências, em diferentes lugares e momentos da vida. Viciada em “remédios para rinite” e um tanto perdida em sua existência, logo nas primeiras páginas ela se apaixona de pronto por um homem fugaz, que aparece e desaparece constantemente – criando a sensação de que ele escorre pelos dedos da personagem, e também do leitor –, como uma ilusão efêmera.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePor meio dessa protagonista moderna, independente, observadora, irônica e que, ao mesmo tempo, é romântica e busca viver um grande amor, somos imersos em uma São Paulo vibrante, repleta de personagens excêntricos, como “a cartomante que vai perdendo o sotaque à medida que a consulta avança, a mãe hipocondríaca que canta óperas no telefone, o amigo misantropo, o psicanalista que estuda a sexualidade dos caramujos [...].  Essas figuras ganham voz em diálogos afiadíssimos, pontuados por frases lapidares, dessas que hoje receberiam milhares de likes”, conforme relata Giovana Madalosso no texto de orelha.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA aventura aqui narrada ocorre na virada da década de 1980 para 1990. No texto inédito de apresentação a essa edição, Bruna Lombardi reflete sobre a geração protagonista dessa história, que é “urbana, pós-moderna, fascinada pela explosão techno e pelos computadores pessoais”. Trata-se de uma sociedade aquém do que hoje, aparentemente, nos é essencial, que ainda não tem “redes sociais, Google, celulares, selfies, WhatsApp, streaming, algoritmos, aplicativos e muito menos IA”. A narrativa retrata, assim, uma geração que valoriza a presença física de seu parceiro e exige a forma real do outro, ao mesmo tempo em que está à beira da transição para o mundo digital.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo entanto, \u003cem\u003eFilmes proibidos\u003c\/em\u003e não é uma obra que ficou presa no século XX. Na verdade, apesar do \u003cem\u003egap\u003c\/em\u003e temporal evidenciado pelas diferenças entre o que para as personagens era novidade e o que para nós já pertence ao passado, traz uma história que parece ter sido escrita nos dias atuais. É, portanto, uma narrativa pioneira, à frente de seu tempo, assim como sua autora, que coloca no centro do palco uma mulher dona de si, que não abre mão de viver plenamente, em sua liberdade. Como bem observa Giovana Madalosso, Bruna Lombardi \"antecipa a geração de protagonistas sexualmente livres e descontruídas da literatura contemporânea\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Como todo brasileiro, eu já conhecia o talento de Bruna Lombardi na frente das câmeras.
