A Vida e Três Prisões: Relato Autobiográfico de um Ex-exilado Político
Djalma Ferreira nasceu no Rio de Janeiro em 25 de janeiro de 1948, filho do músico e compositor Djalma Ferreira (1913-2004), ilustre personagem da boemia e das noites cariocas dos anos 1950. Preso em 1971 por conta de sua militância política, decidiu, como centenas de outros brasileiros, fugir para o Chile. Com o golpe militar contra Salvador Allende, refugiou-se na França em 1973. Na Sorbonne, formou-se em História e especializou-se em Demografia. Voltou para o Brasil com a Anistia de 1979 e, desde então, fixou residência em Salvador. Tornou-se, então, funcionário da Secretaria de Planejamento do Estado da Bahia, servindo durante alguns anos como Consultor do BID e, posteriormente, como Consultor da UNESCO na Bahia. Aposentado desde 2010, resgata suas memórias em histórias do exílio e de sua vida familiar e profissional que juntam realidade, sonhos e pesadelos.

Bossa Nova
Bossa nova is one of the most popular musical genres in the world. Songs such as “The Girl from Ipanema” (the fifth most frequently played song in the world), “The Waters of March,” and “Desafinado” are known around the world. Bossa Nova—a number-one bestseller when originally published in Brazil as Chega de Saudade—is a definitive history of this seductive music. Based on extensive interviews with Antonio Carlos Jobim, Jo+o Gilberto, and all the major musicians and their friends, Bossa Nova explains how a handful of Rio de Janeiro teenagers changed the face of popular culture around the world. Now, in this outstanding translation, the full flavor of Ruy Castro’s wisecracking, chatty Portuguese comes through in a feast of detail. Along the way he introduces a cast of unforgettable characters who turned Gilberto’s singular vision into the sound of a generation.
