“Esta história deveria ser lida por todas as pessoas que estão cansadas da liturgia deste mundo; pessoas que procuram algo novo sem compreenderem que isso já está ao seu alcance.” JC. A vida não é uma mera passagem baseada no que o “sistema” nos impõe, mas no amor que é manifestado através de um simples abraço ou em um singelo ato de parar para ouvir uma alma aflita, e lhe dizer: “VOCÊ VALE A PENA.”

Who decides which stories about a city are remembered? How do interpretations of the past shape a city’s present and future? In this book, Andreza Aruska de Souza Santos discusses notions of power and national identity by examining how nation-states negotiate the preservation of urban spaces and how a city interprets, resists, and consents to the functions and meanings that it has inherited and that it reinvents for itself. Looking at the Brazilian city of Ouro Preto, de Souza Santos applies fine-grained ethnography and historical analysis to discuss the limits of Brazil’s imagery of social harmony and participatory democracy amid continuous inequality.

Construir uma cidade no meio do nada e sem dinheiro algum. Assim nasceu Goiânia, uma capital planejada nos anos 30, que custou caro a vários de seus pioneiros. O jornalista Iúri Rincon Godinho pesquisou durante 10 anos para escrever esse livro, resgatando um tempo em que o Brasil vivia sob uma ditadura e Goiás era o segundo estado mais pobre da Federação. A obra abrange dez anos, desde quando se falou pela primeira vez na construção — os três primeiros prédios demoraram quase quatro anos para serem concluídos —, até o Batismo Cultural, quando foi oficialmente inaugurada.

Aqui estão opiniões e depoimentos de representantes de diversos segmentos da sociedade, cada um mostrando suas peculiaridades e a maneira como se adaptou a mudanças impositivas e necessárias, como isolamento e distanciamento social. Algumas, expõem fortaleza; outras, fragilidade. Notam-se momentos de desalento, solidão, incertezas, descrições da realidade nua e crua de um país de grandes desafios econômicos e sociais e onde muitos foram surpreendidos pela pandemia sem trabalho, sem renda, e seguem vivendo com o pouco que conseguem, seja através de doações, ações de governo ou pequenos bicos; o que minimiza as dificuldades.
