Um ensaio primoroso retratando a solidão do ser humano que vegeta anônimo em meio às multidões de grandes cidades, induzido a concentrar-se nos mínimos detalhes dos próprios atos e em pormenores irrelevantes de sua própria vida.

"O cotidiano nem sempre é tomado apenas por questões profundas. E nem só delas vive o homem, mas também de banalidades. Muitas vezes, ele é tomado por questões ‘menores’, e é a elas que nos dedicaremos aqui. O cotidiano tenderá a ser mais pobre no futuro. Mais entediante e previsível. Refletiremos sobre pequenas questões neste livro.”

The crônica, a literary genre peculiar to Brazilian newspapers, allows writers, or even soccer stars, to address a wide readership on any theme they like. Chatty, mystical, intimate, flirtatious, and revelatory, Clarice Lispector’s pieces for the Saturday edition of Rio’s leading paper, the Jornal do Brasil, from 1967 to 1973, take the forms of memories, essays, aphorisms, and serialized stories. Endlessly delightful, her insights make one sit up and think, whether about children or social ills or pets or society women or the business of writing or love.

Once upon a time, there was a tower on a hill, beyond the dark trees, somewhere north. An octagonal tower on two levels: glass upstairs and stone below, beneath a steep slate roof – a folly, it was said. According to locals, a young woman named Annie who fell ill was confined to the tower by her father for three years and died there, alone. Fascinated by Annie's story, Thea Lenarduzzi attempts to piece the past together in a formidable act of imagination, which, tugging at the strings of the how, why and who of stories, begins to unravel the very idea of storytelling itself.

Everyone told Sinead that having a newborn was a beautiful kind of delirium - a hazy blur of broken sleep and exhaustion, wrapped in euphoria. A life-changing love. Sinead spent every day of her traumatic pregnancy clinging to that sliver of light in the dark. But when Vivie arrived, there was no euphoria, no life-altering love. And nine days after giving birth, Sinead was admitted to the Mother & Baby Unit at Starship Hospital in the grips of severe postnatal depression.

Sie sind mutig, fordern nichts ein, aber nehmen sich, was sie brauchen. Ein Hörbuch über Freiheit im Alter jenseits gesellschaftlicher Klischees.
