Visit product page →Cicatrizes written by Dino D’Santiago (language Portuguese) autorretrato/ autobiography
Metade de um século passou sobre a independência da sua terra ancestral, altura em que o seu pai já emigrara da ilha cabo-verdiana de Santiago para Portugal. Meia centena é também o número de textos que compõem a estreia literária de Dino D’Santiago.
Esta estreia não resulta de uma produção linear, nem nasceu da intenção de se tornar livro, mas germinou de forma orgânica, num processo de escrita e de autoconhecimento que se foi alimentando mutuamente. Escrever foi pedir licença à ancestralidade, voltar às memórias do passado, olhar para o presente e esperançar o futuro.
Ao ser desafiado a publicar o que escreveu, o autor acreditou que a partilha da sua experiência, das suas reflexões sobre o quotidiano, do seu sentir, e também dos seus conflitos e vulnerabilidades, revela aquilo que ele em nenhum momento deixa de ser: o homem comum que, apesar da carreira artística, não abre mão dos papéis de pai, filho, irmão e marido.
Se a pena é a língua da alma, Cicatrizes exprime sem precedentes a natureza íntima do seu criador.
Autor
Dino D’Santiago nasceu Claudino de Jesus Borges Pereira em 1982, em Faro. Filho de pais cabo-verdianos, cedo se envolveu nos movimentos de música urbana globalizada, fundindo os universos do soul e do hip-hop com o batuku e o funaná.
Em nome próprio lançou os álbuns Eu e os Meus (2008), Eva (2013), Mundu Nôbu(2018), Kriola (2020) e BADIU (2021), além de ter colaborado em trabalhos com diversos artistas.
Entre os muitos prémios e distinções que recebeu, destacam-se diversos Play – Prémios da Música Portuguesa, um Globo de Ouro e a nomeação para os Grammy Latinos com a canção «Esperança» (conjuntamente com Criolo e Amaro Freitas).

Portuguese Women’s Fight for Labour Rights in Toronto
- Legislative Assembly of Ontario Speaker's Book Award, 2023 (Short-listed)
This fascinating book uncovers the little-known, surprisingly radical history of the Portuguese immigrant women who worked as night-time office cleaners and daytime “cleaning ladies” in postwar Toronto.
Drawing on union records, newspapers, and interviews, feminist labour historians Susana P. Miranda and Franca Iacovetta piece together the lives of immigrant women who bucked convention by reshaping domestic labour and by leading union drives, striking for workers’ rights, and taking on corporate capital in the heart of Toronto’s financial district. Despite being sidelined within the labour movement and subjected to harsh working conditions in the commercial cleaning industry, the women forged critical alliances with local activists to shape picket-line culture and make an indelible mark on their communities.
Richly detailed and engagingly written, Cleaning Up is an archival treasure about an undersung piece of working-class history in urban North America.

O método simples e eficiente para diagnosticar, prevenir e reverter a diabetes tipo 2.
Este livro pretende ajudar quem já foi diagnosticado com esta doença, bem como quem já dela padece há vários anos e quer encontrar outra solução que não a farmacológica.
A diabetes é já um flagelo que assola impiedosamente a grande maioria da população mundial. Segundo as últimas previsões espera-se que duplique em apenas 30 anos o número de diabéticos à volta do globo, para cerca de 1,3 milhões em 2050. Portugal não será exceção.
A pergunta que se impõe é porque não evitar a todo o custo este cenário, em vez de lidar com as consequências? É isso o que propõe fazer o Doutor Manuel Pinto Coelho neste livro, ao mostrar-nos que a diabetes tipo 2 pode não apenas ser prevenida, bem diagnosticada e acima de tudo revertida. Tudo com gestos simples e mudanças quotidianas.sober o Autor

Fiction by Clarice Lispector
Translated from Portuguese by Katrina Dodson
With a contribution by Benjamin Moser
Here, gathered in one volume, are the stories that made Clarice a Brazilian legend. Originally a cloth edition of eighty-six stories, now we have eighty-nine in all, covering her whole amazing career, from her teenage years to her deathbed. In these pages, we meet teenagers becoming aware of their sexual and artistic powers, humdrum housewives whose lives are shattered by unexpected epiphanies, old people who don’t know what to do with themselves— and in their stories, Clarice takes us through their lives—and hers—and ours.

Visit product page →Life under Brazil’s brutal “cordial racism” comes painfully alive in this novel of fathers and sons.
How do you become the protagonist of your own life? For Pedro, it means searching for himself in the objects his father left behind: the layers that make up his life, and that of his parents, and the circumstances, geographies, and wounds that shaped them all. It’s an archaeology of affections, but also of life in southern Brazil, where being black on the streets of Porto Alegre manifests violences large and small. Where being a young woman, raised by a single mother, may find you seeking security in the untrustworthy arms of men.
In Dark Side of Skin , Jeferson Tenório takes on fathers and sons, Shakespeare and Cervantes, and the inescapable bonds and burdens of family and history in one delicately rendered, painfully precise account of loved ones lost and found.
