Coincidence or not, his prose would also win critical acclaim. Carrero is one of the most important contemporary Brazilian authors, with numerous awards, including the Jabuti Award for Best Book of Short Stories in 2000 and the Best Novelist of the Year from the São Paulo Association of Art Critics in 1995. In 2010, he received the Machado de Assis Award from the National Library Foundation and the São Paulo Prize for Literature for the novel \"My Soul is God's Sister.\" But with the story finished, the writer felt some characters had more to say. He chose Alvarenga and Raquel, and thus began his latest work, \"It Would Be a Dark Secret Night.\" A book about absolute love, which even prescinds from the presence of the beloved, something so peculiar to the lover's longing and passion. The camel Alvarenga and the prostitute Raquel live a mismatched and confused love, devoid of sexual desire, driven by the immense tenderness they've felt for each other since adolescence. Alvarenga lives off the scraps of food he finds in the trash, and Raquel has become a prostitute since becoming enthralled by French theory of the social body during her history class at the university. The two live in a boarding house in Recife's bohemian neighborhood, deeply alone and harboring hopeless dreams. Alvarenga is a strange character: he plays the trumpet to summon Raquel's lovers and can't even tell if she's beautiful or ugly because he confuses the aesthetic elements of the contemporary world. For him, beauty is either a solitary bird, full of colorful plumage, or an old and decaying bird. By bringing together new texts, characters, and situations with those from his other novels, which repeat and advance throughout the plot and harmony of the text, Carrero creates a unique and singular novel. \"The traditional novel wants to tell a story, but the writer must seek new techniques and find new paths. The reader understands, yes,\" argues Carrero.","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47159468491004,"sku":"9788501093929","price":54.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/b79dece24d2cab6548029e236cd4d575.jpg?v=1778324718"},{"product_id":"o-senhor-agora-vai-mudar-de-corpo","title":"You will now change bodies","description":"Raimundo Carrero releases the long-awaited novel written during his battle with a stroke that nearly took his life. In the early hours of October 18th to 19th, 2010, writer Raimundo Carrero—one of Brazil's most awarded authors—suffered a stroke that left him with a damaged left side. Upon returning from the hospital ICU where he had remained for 15 days, he sat down at his computer to try to transform that painful experience into literature. Four years and several erased drafts later, Carrero finally found the literary form he was looking for. *O senhor agora vai mudar de corpo* is a short and poignant novel, in which the writer revisits decisive moments of his past life, beginning with the terrifying moment when he feared he would definitively lose control of his body.","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47175071072508,"sku":"9788501102836","price":54.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/db67c07dd25bb8e67c2c21d9321f0f0e.jpg?v=1778321222"},{"product_id":"a-minha-alma-e-irma-de-deus","title":"My soul is God's sister","description":"Camila is a young woman who wants to be a saint to parade in the army of the eleven thousand virgins of Paradise.\n On a Sunday afternoon in Recife, he discovers the sect Soldiers of the Fatherland for Christ through its founder, the pastor-musician Leonardo, who spends the day playing saxophone on the sidewalks.

She can't even sleep in ruins and old, uninhabited houses. A fitting metaphor for contemporary man.\n To achieve this narrative effect, Raimundo Carrero uses intratextuality — a collection of \nnew texts with those from his other novels, as well as characters and situations—and intertextuality—texts and motifs from other authors, including the Bible. All this because *My Soul is God's Sister* is the novel that concludes the tetralogy \"Quarteto Áspero\" (Harsh Quartet), composed of *Açã agreste* (Wild Apple), *We Are Stones That Consume* (We Are Stones That Consume), and *Love Doesn't Have Good Feelings* (Love Doesn't Have Good Feelings), with characters, scenes, and sequences that repeat and advance through the plot and harmony of the text, modified, altered, renewed, creating new situations, independent of each other.\n Involved in a mysterious kidnapping, Camila begs her father to pay the ransom immediately. \nso she can ascend to the heavens, while wandering the city streets alongside Leonardo, who drinks in bars and stalls, while she plays with dolls and racing cars, sitting on the curb. It's a poignant metaphor for a generation that needs to survive but finds no jobs or help, and must struggle alone to achieve some social status. And when that doesn't happen, they sink dizzily, dazed and hungry. \nThe beauty of this story also lies in the solitude of Camila, a young woman who doesn't know her way around and seeks to cling to values that Brazilian urban society often ignores—religion, morality, and ethics, prompting the heartbreaking phrase from one of its less representative characters: \"I am the third person after no one.\" Furthermore, the reader will meet the couple Raquel and Alvarenga, the latter a poor man who plays the trumpet on the sidewalks, inviting his wife's lovers to his prostitute's bed, explaining his life: \"I am a social, democratic body; I belong to everyone.
