Cartas
Devolvemos ao público este volume de correspondência de Caio Fernando Abreu, esgotado havia vários anos, depois da pioneira edição pela editora Aeroplano, de 2002, uma iniciativa de Heloisa Buarque de Hollanda, composta por cartas enviadas por Caio a Maria Adelaide Amaral, Hilda Hilst, Flora Süssekind, Cida Moreira, Gilberto Gawronski, Jacqueline Cantore, João Silvério Trevisan, Mario Prata, entre outros. A presente edição das cartas de Caio marca os vinte anos de sua morte, ocorrida em 1996, e vem atualizada e enriquecida pelo acréscimo de cartas e cartões. Com prefácio e organização de Italo Moriconi, a edição sai exclusivamente em e-book.
Moldy Strawberries
Caio Fernando Abreu is one of those authors who is picked up by every generation. Surreal and gripping stories about desire, tyranny, fear, and love, from one of Brazil’s greatest queer writers, whose work is appearing in English for the first time. In 18 gripping and daring stories filled with tension and intimacy, Caio Fernando Abreu navigates a Brazil transformed by the AIDS epidemic and stifling military dictatorship of the 80s. Tenderly suspended between fear and longing, Abreu’s characters grasp for connection: A man speckled with Carnival glitter crosses a crowded dance floor and seeks the warmth and beauty of another body. A budding office friendship between two young men turns i...

O melhor de Caio Fernando Abreu
"O melhor de Caio Fernando Abreu faz parte da coleção que apresenta aos leitores o que nomes consgardos da literatura brasileira publicaram de mais instigante e significativo nos gêneros conto e crônica. Foram justamente esses gêneros os mais explorados pelo escritor gaúcho que soube mesclar com tanta destreza o viço inefável da vida e o seu mofo. Nunca é demais insistir na dificuldade de escolher os melhores contos e crónicas em meio a uma obra de qualidade excepcional. Apesar de tudo, porém, enfrentamos o desafio certos de que sempre vale a pena oferecer ao leitor textos que sem dúvida ele gostará de ter à mão. Contando com o respaldo de inúmeros estudos sobre o autor, e lendo e relendo a sua obra, fizemos a nossa seleção tendo plena consciência de que vários textos que ficaram de fora poderiam perfeitamente entrar neste volume. Mas a escholha do essencial, dos que representam um panorama, é inevitável." --Publisher.
In the Meadow of Fantasies
Written by the winner of IBBY's Best Book Award, Mohammad Hadi Mohammadi, In the Meadow of Fantasies is one girl's luminous escapade into a land of seven mysterious horses. A young girl with a physical disability gazes up at a mobile of spinning horses from her little pink bed in her room filled with leafy plants. As she watches them prance about, the tufted snout of a real live horse peeks through her bedroom door. Soon enough, our bright protagonist is off and cantering on an adventure with seven majestic horses. The first six are easily understood: their colors, dreams, families, and origins are described and accompanied with exquisite drawings. The seventh horse, however, is an enigmatic creature with no clear hue or history, a lack that is soon filled in by the loving offerings of the other ponies. A story about dreaming and about caring for others, In the Meadow of Fantasies will remind young readers of their own reveries and conjure new fantasies of friendly creatures in far off lands.
Contos completos
Pela primeira vez, a reunião de todos os contos de um dos autores mais viscerais da contracultura brasileira. Publicados entre as décadas de 1970 e 1990, os contos de Caio Fernando Abreu são o retrato de uma geração. Os tempos autoritários e sombrios dos anos de chumbo aparecem nesta reunião não apenas como pano de fundo, mas como parte constituinte de uma prosa que se consagrou pelo estilo combativo e radical. Vida e obra, aqui, se misturam a ponto de biografia se transformar em literatura e vice-versa. Em Contos completos, o leitor tem a chance de percorrer toda a produção do autor no gênero da prosa breve. O volume abarca seis títulos — Inventário do ir-remediável (1970), ...
