Lóri, a primary school teacher, is isolated and nervous, comfortable with children but unable to connect to adults. When she meets Ulisses, a professor of philosophy, an opportunity opens: a chance to escape the shipwreck of introspection and embrace the love, including the sexual love, of a man. Her attempt, as Sheila Heti writes in her afterword, is not only “to love and to be loved,” but also “to be worthy of life itself.”

Published in 1968, An Apprenticeship is Clarice Lispector’s attempt to reinvent herself following the exhausting effort of her metaphysical masterpiece The Passion According to G. H. Here, in this unconventional love story, she explores the ways in which people try to bridge the gaps between them, and the result, unusual in her work, surprised many readers and became a bestseller.

Some appreciated its accessibility; others denounced it as sexist or superficial. To both admirers and critics, the olympian Clarice gave a typically elliptical answer: “I humanized myself,” she said. “The book reflects that.”

Written by Maria Isaac, Language Portuguese,

«São as histórias que nos matam, quando não conseguimos abandoná-las, nem mudar quem somos nelas.

» Miguel Godói viveu um casamento feliz, que deveria ter durado para sempre.

Mas acidentes acontecem, as histórias mudam, os heróis também morrem, e até os casamentos felizes chegam ao fim.

Agora sozinho numa vida que não escolheu para si, aprende a conviver com as limitações de um corpo partido e mal emendado, com uma epilepsia peculiar que o tornou num doente crónico, e a fazer sentido do mundo entre as suas memórias imperfeitas.

Numa manhã de inverno, Miguel conhece uma misteriosa criança que o leva até a uma casa desconhecida na Madragoa à procura de respostas sobre o livro enigmático que chegou às suas mãos.

O que lá encontra, porém, são ainda mais perguntas e uma possibilidade inesperada: um novo amor por uma mulher.

Perdido há demasiado tempo no lugar-comum do sofrimento, onde as dores familiares transformam a nostalgia na escolha preferencial, Miguel Godói enfrentará agora a vertigem de alcançar uma esperança até aqui desconhecida.

Autor

Júlio Dinis, pseudónimo de Joaquim Guilherme Gomes Coelho, nasceu em 1839 no Porto, onde cursou Medicina. Em 1862, diagnosticado com tuberculose, suspende o exercício da profissão e retira-se, durante vários anos, para Ovar e, mais tarde, para a Madeira. Descoberto o encanto da vida rural, mas nunca esquecendo o afã da cidade e a sua burguesia nascente, publica o seu primeiro romance em volume, As Pupilas do Senhor Reitor, em 1867, seguindo-se-lheUma Família Inglesa (ambos lançados previamente em folhetins, no Jornal do Porto) e A Morgadinha dos Canaviais, ambos em 1868. No ano seguinte conclui o seu quarto romance, Os Fidalgos da Casa Mourisca, cujas provas tipográficas já não acabará de rever. Marcando a transição entre romantismo e realismo, e influenciado pela leitura dos grandes autores ingleses, como Jane Austen ou Charles Dickens, Júlio Dinis cultiva na sua obra o tratamento cuidado de temas familiares e quotidianos, numa estrutura de desenvolvimento lento, mas de resolução engenhosa. Após uma longa batalha contra a doença, morre prematuramente, aos 31 anos, na cidade que o viu nascer, em 1871.

Author Euclide Da Cunha translated to English by Elizabeth Lowe.

An important new translation of a fundamental work of Brazilian literature

Written by a former army lieutenant, civil engineer, and journalist, Backlands is Euclides da Cunha's vivid and poignant portrayal of Brazil's infamous War of Canudos. The deadliest civil war in Brazilian history, the conflict during the 1890s was between the government and the village of Canudos in the northeastern state of Bahia, which had been settled by 30,000 followers of the religious zealot Antonio Conselheiro. Far from just an objective retelling, da Cunha's story shows both the significance of this event and the complexities of Brazilian society.

Published here in a new translation by Elizabeth Lowe, and featuring an introduction by one of the foremost scholars of Latin America, this is sure to remain one of the best chronicles of war ever penned.
