{"product_id":"perdas-e-ganhos-capa-dura","title":"Losses and Gains (Hardcover)","description":"With a 30-year literary career and a repertoire of over 20 published books, including novels and short stories, poetry, chronicles, essays, and children's books, Lya Luft has established herself as one of Brazil's greatest publishing phenomena in recent years. After winning over thousands of readers with her beautiful fiction, her definitive acclaim came in 2003 with the astonishing Perdas \u0026amp; Ganhos (Perks \u0026amp; Gains), which consolidated for the author a genre she herself defines as \"neither quite fiction nor quite chronicle,\" but rather an attempt to speak directly to her reader about the same themes as her poetry and fiction: the human existential drama. A huge success with the public, the book, a mix of essay and memoir, written in a tone of dialogue—especially with women—remained at the top of the bestseller lists for 113 weeks and had its rights sold to several countries. To celebrate the 10th anniversary of the book's release, which has sold nearly 1 million copies over the past decade, Record is now publishing a special commemorative edition with a hardcover, a new introduction by the author, and a cover story by Nélida Piñon. Among the beautiful philosophical chronicles about life and its mysteries, Lya discusses encounters and missed encounters, the passage of time, childhood, maturity, and old age, the difficulties of romantic relationships, family relationships, and the questioning of death and life itself.","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47174902513916,"sku":"9788501403575","price":64.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/ef9148d86a56ee4e7c3ec6235a953ac4_ffb67f5f-dbc2-4699-a556-885982f87a40.jpg?v=1778314233","url":"https:\/\/www.record.com.br\/en\/products\/perdas-e-ganhos-capa-dura","provider":"Editora Record","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
