This book was released on 2020-12-15 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about contemporary Brazilian fiction from the past two decades and concerned with the possibilities of literary intervention in the reality of the historical moment. Thus, an understanding of the actual role of literature is strategic in the definition of the contemporary, and the book shows an optimism among current writers and artists with respect to the aesthetic, ethical, and political role of literature and art in the twentieth century. In contemporary Brazilian prose, two simultaneous ambitions are often reconciled. The commitment to individual or social reality is a challenge that is assumed without thereby necessarily accepting and following the molds of the traditional search for national or cultural identities. This foundation is one of the constants of contemporary prose, without thereby eliminating the continuous existence of a formal experimentalism that is the clearest heir of the modernist project.

Download or read book Consolação written by Carlos Messias and published by Prosaica. This book was released on 2020-01-17 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: O romance Consolação narra a aventura (e as desventuras) de Marco Camargo, jornalista que, em vias de completar 30 anos, toma um pé na bunda na mesma época em que uma demissão em massa atinge a redação onde trabalha. Ao descobrir que sua ex, por quem nutre um sentimento de posse, já arrumou outro, o protagonista se lança ao seguinte desafio: levar cem mulheres para a cama. O narrador se muda com seu cachorro para o bairro paulistano Consolação e, literalmente da noite para o dia, passa a viver uma rotina frenética de sexo, drogas e rock'n'roll. Tal qual um Forrest Gump degenerado, o personagem atravessa os principais acontecimentos do Brasil — da crise no jornalismo à popularização do Tinder, de junho de 2013 à Copa do Mundo —, sempre atrás de um novorabo de saia para sua lista.Com ritmo acelerado, abordagem naturalista e influência da linguagem do cinema, da internet e da música pop, a narrativa expõe a liquidez e o automatismo dos relacionamentos na era digital, ao mesmo tempo em que serve como prelúdio para a crise política e ideológica no país. O tom canastrão e o léxico sexista do narrador acabam por revelar as contradições identitárias e as fragilidades associativas que se escondem sob a masculinidade tóxica. Ao mesmo tempo, ao capturar, de forma alegórica, a onda hipster, o livro se coloca como registro geracional dos primeiros millennials a atingirem 30 anos. TEXTO DA CONTRACAPA "Depois de se separar, o jornalista Marco Camargo resolve tirar o atraso, propondo-se a cair na noite e levar cem mulheres para a cama. O que pode parecer uma premissa vazia revela-se uma forma corajosa e bem-humorada de abordar a crise do macho contemporâneo. Afinal, ao acordar solteiro, Marco descobre que, para lá da porta do seu apê, o mundo não é mais o mesmo. As mulheres mudaram e a forma de interagir com elas também. Numa era digital e avessa a ranços machistas, Marco tenta sobreviver e (por que não?) se dar bem, pulando de um par de seios para outro, às vezes anestesiando-se com drogas, bebida e música pop, às vezes fantasiando um curioso seminário sobre como conquistar qualquer mulher. O nome Consolação refere-se ao bairro em gentrificação que se transforma junto com o personagem, mas também poderia aludir ao resquício deixado pela narrativa: num universo de relações cada vez mais supérfluas, o sexo casual pode não salvar ninguém, mas pelo menos serve como algum consolo", Giovana Madalosso.
