In \"Oh My God, Oh My Jesus,\" he addresses situations and topics related to love and sex. In \"Love Forgets to Start,\" the author is married and presents texts exalting women. In \"Scoundrel!\", already single, he writes an ode to the life of conquest. In \"Woman the Perdigueira,\" he recounts the beginning of his relationship with his jealous wife. Finally, in \"Borralheiro,\" he depicts the definitive transformation of a confirmed bachelor into a househusband. The book is like bedding: a quilt, sheet, and pillowcase of words. Filling the empty spaces of the bed, shaping performances, detailing feelings, covering and uncovering sex. The lovers' encounter, the parents' routine, the euphoria of the beginning of marriage, the denial of love. By dissecting the nature of the female soul like no other, Carpinejar once again throws open the bedroom door and fucks right in front of us. Shamelessly, unafraid to surrender or be seen. What matters is that moment, its meaning, its unfolding, its motives, and its concerns. \"The truth is that a woman seeks a predictable yet intense man. Never monotonous, never stagnant, never complacent. One who always lives the same routine with the impetus of discovery, who renews his rapture daily. A man capable of loving her as if he were always going to have sex.\" (Carpinejar) According to BRAVO! magazine, Carpinejar should be read \"for the humor, irony, and lyricism with which he reflects on love, sex, and everyday life.\" \"A tremendous reputation precedes the Rio Grande do Sul poet Fabrício Carpinejar wherever he goes: that of knowing how to seduce with words.\" (Folha Guide) \"The author plays with the differences between men and women.\" (Época) \"Jokingly, Fabrício talks about serious matters.\" (Estado de Minas) “Men are not all the same.

Despite his few publications, the author is considered one of Brazil's greatest short story writers. This reissue features a new graphic design and an introduction by Mario Pontes. The last publication was in 1997. An enthusiast of the avant-garde schools of the early 20th century, his entire literary work is heavily influenced by Modernism, but also displays characteristics of various trends of the time. The speed of modern life appears as a fundamental element in the Minas Gerais writer's fiction: ships, trains, and telegraph lines are recurrent in his work. In the short story \"The Initiate of the Wind,\" dedicated to João Cabral de Melo Neto, the wind plays a significant role, ceasing to be a mere phenomenon and determining the solution to the conflict. This short story has characteristics that subtly bring it closer to surrealism by presenting elements of both reality and fantasy. The departure from reality can also be seen in *The Parade of Hats*, *The Piano*, and *The Mouse*, *The Civil Guard* and *The Transatlantic*. Published under the title *Happy Life* in 1944, it accompanied the already famous *The Death of the Standard-Bearer*, which tells the story of a Rio tragedy, and other texts. In 1954, several short stories were added to this collection, and the book became *Collected Stories*, which for editorial reasons had its title changed to its current one. Among the stories added in 1954 is *Journey to Duília's Breasts*, dedicated to his friend Carlos Drummond de Andrade and considered one of the most important Brazilian short stories of the last century. In the text, the author tells the story of José Maria who, after years of working in a government office, retires and must reinvent his life. Another highlight of the book is the short story *Tati, the Girl*. In it, a pregnant woman moves from a poor neighborhood on the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro to Copacabana. Aníbal's text became a film in 1973, directed by Bruno Barreto and starring Dina Sfat and Hugo Carvana.","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47159275782396,"sku":"9788503010740","price":59.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/39f70e908fce0c1c8704a1ce523df05d.jpg?v=1778322874"},{"product_id":"pedra-encantada-e-outras-historias","title":"Enchanted Stone and other stories","description":"One of Brazil's greatest writers has her children's and young adult literature revitalized by JOSÉ OLYMPIO PUBLISHERS. *A PEDRA ENCANTADA E OUTRAS SISTÓRIAS* brings together short stories by Rachel de Queiroz about everyday events, unusual episodes, memories, and travel impressions.

After receiving the 2009 Jabuti Award in the Short Stories and Chronicles category and surprising readers with his avant-garde collection of tweets, Fabricio Carpinejar presents his new collection of chronicles: Mulher Perdigueira (Woman Perdigueira). In this work, the author creates meaning for the unseen. That which has no color but colors, that has no weight but beats, that has no shape but taste. That which makes people different, that tears apart stories, that brings kisses closer, that connects souls, that builds and destroys inversely. Fabrício speaks of what matters. Whether dissecting the female soul in Gay Heterosexual, transforming plastic into truths in Pratinho do Vaso (Little Potty Prawn), or displaying irony in Ou entra em tratamento ou termino o namoro (Or I enter treatment or I end the relationship) and Fifteen Minutes of Truth, what Carpinejar does is lean into the ethereal. He glassed himself, pierced people with a magnifying glass, and didn't find pores, but rather veins. In Mulher Perdigueira, he's more mature, and his rationality serves to reinforce the escape he experiences when he transcends coherent form and emerges pureblood to flow again, dualizing the configuration of things, sending chills between the lines, taking our breath away in the space between words, and dying of love with each full stop. \"Fabrício Carpinejar (...) lends his gaze to comment on everyday life, and the result is surprising: he reads inside out, inaugurates words, unlocks meanings, unravels concepts, unleashes original ideas, startling the impassive crowd, as we can see in Mulher Perdigueira. But he goes further: he reestablishes a dialogue with the audience, unusual among his peers, sharing doubts, anxieties, and astonishment. (...) Carpinejar undertakes his work with the awareness of those who know they are predestined.\" Luiz Rufatto","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47159344726268,"sku":"9788528614329","price":59.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/75694dabeab85c8624e19a77c3c4c600_16644292-b849-4d6d-a5bb-1e8cf391e891.jpg?v=1778325830"},{"product_id":"meia-palavra-basta","title":"Half a word is enough","description":"\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eHalf a word is enough\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e, by lyricist, essayist, composer and philosopher Francisco Bosco, is a brief collection of relaxed and contemplative maxims.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003e\"What is a dull theory?

Entangled in the web of his language, the narrator attempts to compose a dictionary of himself, seeking to \"live syntactically,\" like a set of vertebrae, and this desire for order and harmony is what constantly pushes him toward the void of silence, the nothingness that reveals itself to be the core of all things. These are discoveries of this nature that his harsh and tireless words never finish expressing.","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47159878189308,"sku":"9788501079428","price":69.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/7938647b6d95d5db7b5fe2ab09b8f40b_4cc4be8a-bf78-4062-90db-48172c66dc12.jpg?v=1778326501"},{"product_id":"viagem-1","title":"Trip","description":"\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eThe only edition authorized by the Graciliano Ramos Institute, where a portion of the royalties go to the NGO Inoccence Brasil.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eViagem\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ereaffirms Graciliano's commitment to social justice without compromising his literary freedom.

At the end of World War II, the world was divided under the aegis of capitalism or socialism, and much was said about the social role of art and its commitment to popular causes.

The book responds to numerous requests from readers who would like to see the author's best texts gathered together. The chronicles in this collection share Alcione's keen sense of observation. \"I've always been an observer, but after becoming a columnist, I became more attentive to what's happening around me. Soon, the activity became a pleasure. I close my eyes and let the subject take over me,\" says the author. A renowned screenwriter and playwright, Alcione Araújo is the author of the acclaimed novel Nem mesmo todo o oceano (Not Even the Whole Ocean), which, along with Urgent is Life and his playwriting—published by Civilização Brasileira—reveals the writer's many facets and gifts. \"There isn't one Alcione who writes films, another who writes novels, or another who writes plays. Everything has been metabolized. It's the same man, with the same history and the same background,\" he reveals. Displaced from their original setting, the chronicles selected for this book abandon their transience—the pages of the newspaper Estado de Minas—to enter the literary world, thus receiving the enduring status that literature confers upon them. In Urgente é a Vida, Alcione doesn't overdo the lurid and scandalous, serving up a menu of psychosocial and political-historical ills through the lens of everyday scenes.","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47159935074556,"sku":"9788501070142","price":59.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/9440821e530b4f2948c3dbf62c11e59c.jpg?v=1778312968"},{"product_id":"tropecos-nos-tropicos-cronicas-de-um-gringo-brasileiro","title":"Stumbles in the Tropics - Chronicles of a Brazilian Gringo","description":"\"One of Brazil's best chroniclers.\" Luis Fernando Veríssimo An American writing about Brazil? Or a Brazilian writing about the United States? Michael Kepp transcends borders. He fled his hometown, the claustrophobic St. Louis, Missouri, in search of more swing and swagger. And ended up in the Rio de Janeiro of Tom Jobim, of Carnival, of the relaxed atmosphere of Rio. His experiences are colored in chronicles that are sometimes intimate, sometimes moving, but always confessional. A Brazilian gringo, suspended on the border between two cultures, Mike doesn't fit into any category. He embraces them all with the same generosity with which he shares his ideas and adventures with readers. The sex with a prostitute, the hypochondria, the stroke, the implied agreement with his Brazilian wife about how long, at parties, they can talk to strangers of the opposite sex, the first visit to his mother's grave 48 years after her death. Mike bares his soul, and even some—but not the worst—of his flaws with a certain exhibitionism. But literary! A shortcut to creating complicity and even a certain friendship with readers, leaving them feeling less alienated, less lonely. Having lived in Brazil for 28 years, but still possessing a certain 'Americanness,' Mike observes the cultural differences between the two countries with great humor. From telephone etiquette to eating habits, including the relationship with money and work, and attitudes toward family and friends, Mike's writing questions the value of living intensely, warns against the overvaluation of sex, and speculates on what women really want. But he doesn't repeat ready-made recipes. His chronicles are like original literary delicacies, perfect for accompanying laughter, tears, and reflection.","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47159971152124,"sku":"9788501094131","price":54.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/925d81dbadd0d452474090632016e668_fc4a7cb6-cd7a-4c25-a5af-012b0cc4b62e.jpg?v=1778320152"},{"product_id":"sex-and-the-city-o-sexo-e-a-cidade","title":"SEX AND THE CITY","description":"SEX AND THE CITY, by Candace Bushnell, was the book that inspired the eponymous series, which became one of the biggest hits on television in recent years. With over a million copies sold in the United States, SEX AND THE CITY tells the racy and entertaining stories of four friends in New York. Observing the trendy spots, the parties, what wealthy and socialites in New York wear, do, and say—and drawing inspiration from deeply personal experiences—Candace Bushnell fueled her Sex and the City column for years, published in The New York Observer. Interestingly, shortly after the end of her affair with the equally famous, handsome, and glamorous Ron Galotti, then editor of Vogue magazine, the journalist decided to compile 25 of her chronicles into a book, which later became the basis for the cult TV series. Inaugurating a new—and unromantic—perspective for women in their thirties, Bushnell makes extensive use of her alter ego, Carrie—as the author, a very blonde, Balzacian writer from Connecticut. Her hilarious and tumultuous romance with Mr. Big—a character who bears many similarities to the writer's ex, Galotti—provides the basis for the unfolding romantic adventures of the protagonist and her loyal friends, Samantha, Miranda, and Charlotte. An almost anthropological and highly entertaining account of the sexual and romantic behavior of women in their thirties, SEX AND THE CITY is an unforgettable and groundbreaking book that created some of the most daring and entertaining characters in television history. Candace Bushnell, at 43, became one of New York's most popular journalists with her column \"Sex and the City,\" published in The New York Observer. The author of the novel Four Blondes, which reached the top U.S. bestseller lists, moved to Manhattan at 18 and never left her adopted city, of which she became one of its finest chroniclers. \"Sex and the City encapsulates the frenetic atmosphere of New York with incredible originality.\" - Washington Post Book World \"A groundbreaking book with a realism that rivals Tom Wolfe's The Bonfire of the Vanities.\" - The Wall Street Journal \"Candace Bushnell is a shrewd and mischievous observer of her world immersed in Chateau Latour.\" - Time \"The author is a brilliant stylist who exposes the ills of high society.\" - Newsday \"Hilarious.

The book focuses primarily on daily life in New York, where he lived for over a decade. Of the 28 chronicles in this book, 19 were published in O Globo, the rest are previously unpublished. Edney's decision to publish the book was a way to say goodbye to the city—the journalist returned to Rede Globo's headquarters in Brazil this year—and to vent. This is cathartic after September 11th. But \"Outros Tempos\" isn't just about sadness and anger; many of the chronicles are lighthearted and humorous. Throughout the book, Edney reveals to the reader amusing insights into Yankee self-centeredness and the tortuous paths that shaped some of New York's great fortunes. In the first column, which gives the book its title, the journalist writes an emotional essay about the days following the terrorist attack, its aftermath, the behind-the-scenes coverage of Globo's coverage—in short, the transformation of a city and thousands of everyday lives. The days of tranquility and security remain forever in the memories of New Yorkers. On the morning of September 11, 2001, the seemingly impregnable city ceased to be, for an indefinite period, the New York of dreams, the promised land of the world's uprooted. When he arrived there in the early 1990s, Edney witnessed the decadence that plagued the metropolis, permeated by violence and drug trafficking. But he also experienced its rebirth beginning in 1994, with the zero-tolerance system established by Mayor Rudy Giuliani. It is this time of splendor and optimism that the journalist addresses in most of the columns collected in the book. Edney plays with the memories of those who knew the Big Apple at its peak, transporting us back to the fond memories of an unforgettable New York. Like a film that begins at the end, Outros tempos begins with the rubble of the World Trade Center and moves forward, with flashbacks that take the reader on a journey through time and space.","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47174975160572,"sku":"9788501064332","price":49.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/194c5e9fe04e9d94130f45df08f496e3.jpg?v=1778315026"},{"product_id":"um-operario-em-ferias","title":"A worker on vacation","description":"Edited by Christian Schwartz and illustrated by Benett, \"Um operário em férias\" (A Worker on Vacation) contains one hundred chronicles by one of the most important contemporary authors, Cristovão Tezza.
