Sinopse

Studies on body, sexuality, gender and deviation in Brazilian culture.

In Up Close No One Is Normal, the reader will be led by direct and very delicate writing to the themes of love, desire, marriage, family, infidelity, sexuality, body, masculinity and even political activism, death and heroism to unravel the plots of deviation and "normality" in our society.

Mirian Goldenberg is one of the most important figures in the field of gender studies in Brazil. Going beyond the university walls, the anthropologist has brought her research and reflections to countless Brazilians seeking to understand the complexity of romantic and sexual relationships in contemporary society. Her book can be seen as a reinterpretation of the themes pioneered by Simone de Beauvoir in the 20th century. With precision and a wealth of humor, Mirian relativizes the problems that are part of our daily lives, raising new questions for the debate on "gender and deviance" in the 21st century.

Up close, No One Is Normal is essential reading to revisit the fundamental question proposed by Simone de Beauvoir: "One is not born a woman, one becomes a woman."

This paperback edition includes an introduction by Yvonne Maggie.
