'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.
Winner of the 2017 Jabuti Book Prize The Zika virus is devastating lives and communities. Children across the Americas are being born with severe disabilities because of it. Yet during the desolating outbreak, Brazil played host to both the Olympics and the FIFA World Cup, leading many to suspect that the true impact of the virus has been subject to a cover-up of international proportions. Beginning in the northeast, where the devastation has been most felt, professor of bioethics and award-winning documentary filmmaker Debora Diniz travels across Brazil tracing the virus’s origin and spread. Along the journey she meets a host of fearless families, doctors and scientists uncovering the virus’s impact on local communities. In doing so Diniz paints a vivid picture of the Zika epidemic, exposing the Brazilian government’s complicity in allowing the virus to spread while championing the efforts of local doctors and mothers who, working together, are raising awareness of the virus and fighting for the rights of children affected by Zika.

Feeding an expanding population in light of environmental preservation and keeping production lean is a considerable challenge.

A luta contra as opressões de gênero, raça, etnia, sexualidades, em suas particularidades se relacionam e estão organicamente articuladas às lutas contra a exploração do capital sobre a força de trabalho humana. Esse sociometabolismo que se constitui pelo antagonismo entre a classe trabalhadora, explorada e oprimida pelo capital e a burguesia, que se apropria privadamente do trabalho humano para produzir valor e mais valor em uma lógica destrutiva para humanidade e para a natureza deve ser enfrentado cotidianamente. O Livro "Marxismo e questão latino-americana: Lutas sociais classistas contra a exploração capitalista e as opressões de gênero, raça, populações indígenas e LGBTQIAPN+" parte do solo sócio-histórico do continente latino-americano em que se estabelece o desenvolvimento do tardio capitalismo periferico e dependente dos países centrais, imperialistas. Esperamos que possa ser mais um instrumento para todas(os) aquelas(es) que se colocam em ação para fazer frente à barbárie capitalista imposta à humanidade, na luta anti-imperialista e anticapitalista.
A previously untranslated classic of Portuguese feminist literature originally published in 1978, Carvalho's Empty Wardrobes introduces English-speaking readers to a forgotten and underappreciated woman writer a la recent publishing sensations Lucia Berlin, Natalia Ginzburg, Ingeborg Bachmann, Silvina Ocampo, and Armonia Somers. Empty Wardrobes is a tightly plotted, highly entertaining read, that, thanks to an ingenious detached narrative technique (one that makes the plot all the more fun to revisit and rethink), is both darkly humorous and devastatingly true.
