Sometimes imaginary friends can be our best company. Or not...
Vanessa and Thiago are two young people who haven't abandoned their imaginary friends. After losing their therapy group, they decide to create the imaginary friends club with Ricardo and Júlia, to continue meeting and finding support for their fears and traumas. With many dreams and friends in common, the four embark on a series of adventures that only fate knows where they will lead.
Narrating the encounters and disagreements of this group of unconventional friends, The Imaginary Friends Club immerses us in a universe full of sensitivity, often misunderstood, and events capable of forever transforming the lives of each of its characters.
In her second book, Glau Kemp leads us to reflect on the paths the mind can take to help us grow and confirms her talent for young adult literature.
Original and irreverent, The Imaginary Friends Club is a book no one will put down until they finish it. Inspiring for teenagers and a keepsake for adults who've forgotten they were once young.
The Voice — his imaginary friend.
I'm the voice inside his head, and I guarantee you: I'm the least crazy part of this kid. I'm going to tell you this story, but know that it's not just any old whiny teen plot! Crazy things happen; everything this kid gets into goes wrong. So this is a true story about imaginary friends. A story about teenage sex, which consists of hands on asses over jeans. A story about violence, basically slaps that don't land in anyone's face. And a story about friendship that brings together four insane young people and their imaginary friends. People will die, fall in love, go crazy, and regain their sanity. Not in that order, or it would be a zombie story. And this is serious.
Silly Bear — her imaginary friend.
I'm going to die... That's the great spoiler of life: one day we die. So I don't want anyone crying over me, showering me with saliva and snot. Because this is a happy story, of love, friendship, and overcoming. A true story about imaginary friends, in which I end up dying. But I want to tell you about the last glorious seventeen years. The craziest years anyone could have. The years I was Vanessa's teddy bear. The coolest girl in the world and my great love.
"An unusual story about serious matters, told through the voices of imaginary friends. The lightness of Glau Kemp's narrative is seductive and will carry you through to the final pages, through characters that will forever remain in your memory." — Juliana Daglio, author of Lacrymosa
