Rereading it is rediscovering it in all the authenticity that characterizes it and makes it live, live anguishedly and violently. Oh, shocking book, painful and profound beauty!\" - Carlos Drummond de Andrade. Originally published in 1959, a bestseller of its time, A imaginaria returns to the José Olympio catalog. Autobiographical, the book tells the story of the character Berenice from her childhood to her remarkable marriage. Essential for those interested in women's work in Brazilian literature, but also an important reminder of one of the most celebrated writers of her time.","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47159246586108,"sku":"9788503012621","price":64.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/5f7e638f3287f4162f09de61b62b45ac.jpg?v=1778321281"},{"product_id":"neblina","title":"Fog","description":"A novel recommended by Drummond and Jorge Amado. Adalgisa Nery's second novel, first published in 1972, features a woman who suffers a surgical complication and becomes bedridden and mute. Debilitated by these difficulties, this character is poetic and incisive in expressing her profound contempt for her own family, who try to exploit her condition.

A woman with a magnetic personality, she enchanted all who knew her, especially with her sensitivity. In her 36-year career, she published seven books of poems, two novels, a collection of short stories, another of chronicles, and four translations.
