Sinopse

The only edition authorized by the Graciliano Ramos Institute, where a portion of the royalties go to the NGO Inoccence Brasil. With a new graphic design, Insônia brings together thirteen short stories featuring emotional dryness and economy of vocabulary, characteristics that coexist with Graciliano Ramos's psychological precision.

Originally published in 1947, Insomnia is Graciliano Ramos's sixth book. The work brings together thirteen short stories—"Insomnia," "A Thief," "The Hospital Clock," "Paulo," "Luciana," "Minsk," "The Arrest of J. Carmo Gomes," "Two Fingers," "The Witness," "Jealousy," "A Poor Devil," "A Visit," and "Silveira Pereira"—in which themes dear to the author's heart, such as death, aging, and social injustice, are highlighted.

Insomnia shows how human beings react to different situations, revealing their weaknesses and anxieties.

The stories in this work are filled with existential concerns that offer the reader the possibility of confronting their own reality, always accompanied by the style that consecrated Graciliano Ramos as one of the greatest Brazilian authors, and which is already familiar to readers: the economy of vocabulary, the emotional dryness and the psychological precision.
