Sinopse

The Sum and the Rest: A Look at Life at 80 presents Fernando Henrique Cardoso's perspective on the incredible changes Brazil and the world are undergoing, as well as touching on more intimate and subjective issues. The result of more than 10 hours of conversations recorded by Miguel Darcy de Oliveira, the texts reveal the former president's inner voice. The conversation with his friend reveals Cardoso's perspective on the issues he has been dealing with since leaving office, such as the controversy surrounding drugs, but also on more intimate and subjective issues, such as the meaning of life, spirituality and mystery, death, and relationships with family. "This book is perhaps the most spontaneous I have ever published. I almost never speak of my feelings, anxieties, personal and family relationships. Maintaining the reserve that is characteristic of my personality, I allow something more personal to shine through in certain pages," says the former president. This true personal and intellectual compendium revisits Fernando Henrique's roots, reveals the influences and turning points of his career, and reveals a person illuminated by a constant curiosity for the new. In the words of Miguel Darcy de Oliveira, *A soma e o resto* is the "expression of the thread of a life, a work, and a thought that unfold as they constantly open themselves to new experiences and new paths."
