Chronologically distant, the two works in this box are inseparable. In Luís Martins's life, the novel Lapa marked the end of an era. His brilliant debut novel was destroyed by the censorship of the Estado Novo, and the author was exiled to a farm in the interior of São Paulo. Noturno da Lapa, a memoir, was a reckoning with his youth. The author, undeterred, revisits the censored narrative, but now through memory. When he published Lapa, Luís Martins was compared to Érico Veríssimo, Graciliano Ramos, José Lins do Rego, Lucio Cardoso, and Graciliano Ramos. A year later, the book was seized and copies destroyed by the Estado Novo. Lapa went down in history as a near-illegal publication, but to this day it impresses with its literary impact and boldness. In Noturno da Lapa, Luís Martins offers readers the chronicles of a life featuring characters such as Rubem Braga, Carlos Drummond de Andrade, and Odylo Costa, Jr. Not without reason, this book won the Jabuti Award for best memoir in 1965. * The e-books for the titles Lapa and Noturno da Lapa are sold separately.","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47159609590012,"sku":"9788503008358","price":84.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/03dc214a62477e2b32fda83ec2aa4b21.jpg?v=1778324575"},{"product_id":"joao-do-rio-uma-antologia-1","title":"João do Rio: An Anthology","description":"\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eHistorical anthology of texts by the author honored at Flip 2024 returns to bookstores with a new cover.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eIt's difficult to distinguish where journalism ends and literature begins in João do Rio's work.

With brilliance and verbal ingenuity, he immortalized the beginning of the century, the modernization of Brazil, and especially of the capital of the Republic, Rio de Janeiro. Reports, short stories, and chronicles form the scope of his work. He was like a photographer—a profession that was becoming popular—and created a portrait of an era by writing about a country discovering itself and creating its own humor: ironic, satirical, and vivid, illustrated by electric poles, automobiles, cinemas, theaters, \u003cem\u003emodern girls\u003c\/em\u003e , and dandyism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eLuís Martins, who curated and introduced this anthology, is also an award-winning journalist, writer, and, of course, columnist.
