Sinopse

Another masterpiece from the author of The Eternal Son.

Beatriz is a translator in her early 30s grappling with the challenge of translating the Baroque Spanish of Catalan author Felip T. Xaveste. In her apartment, she encounters a series of events that intertwine the urgency of the present moment with memory: a blank envelope mysteriously left under the living room door; the small and large doubts surrounding the translation and the implications it projects for her career; a phone conversation with her writer boyfriend, who is intellectually harassing her; and an unexpected call offering her a job interpreting for a FIFA executive visiting Curitiba for the World Cup preparations in Brazil.

Under the force of pure narrative pleasure, our curiosity is captured by the subtle intersection of points of view over three intense days. The character's memories, arguments, and perceptions unfold in multiple combinations. In this sophisticated novel, driven by a thread of lightness, subtle humor, and self-irony, we find Cristovão Tezza at the height of his narrative mastery—a book that gives us the sensation of glimpsing the most fascinating, complex, and mysterious half of the human universe: the feminine.
