O presente e-book originou-se a partir dos artigos dos alunos do Mestrado do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Memória Social e Patrimônio Cultural da Universidade Federal de Pelotas (UFPel) realizados para a disciplina Políticas Públicas do Patrimônio, ministrada pelos professores Ana María Sosa González e Cláudio de Sá Machado Jr., organizadores deste livro, no primeiro semestre de 2012. Portanto, representa o esforço para traduzir em texto parte das discussões realizadas em sala de aula, abordando os processos patrimoniais que vem acontecendo nos últimos anos no Brasil e no mundo. Este e-book também teve sua origem a partir de convites especiais, feitos pela professora Francisca Ferreira Michelon com colaboração dos professores supracitados a pesquisadores que desenvolvem trabalhos referentes ao tema.
'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.

In this poignant novel, a man guilty of a minor offense finds purpose unexpectedly by way of his punishment—reading to others. After an accident—or “the misfortune,” as his cancer-ridden father’s caretaker, Celeste, calls it—Eduardo is sentenced to a year of community service reading to the elderly and disabled. Stripped of his driver’s license and feeling impotent as he nears thirty-five, he leads a dull, lonely life, chatting occasionally with the waitresses of a local restaurant or walking the streets of Cuernavaca. Once a quiet town known for its lush gardens and swimming pools, the “City of Eternal Spring” is now plagued by robberies, kidnappings, and the other myriad ...
