A obra 'Diversidade e estabilidade em línguas românicas', organizada pelas coordenadoras do Projeto VariaR, oferece um panorama das nuances linguísticas presentes em expressões românicas ao redor do mundo. Os capítulos incluem questões de diversidade e estabilidade em variedades de espanhol, português (língua materna e não materna), gascão e francês, até a intercompreensão românica com foco no romeno. Esta obra é um convite à exploração das dinâmicas intrincadas que permeiam as línguas românicas.
A relação entre variação linguística e ensino constitui, sem dúvida, um dos aspectos mais relevantes para o contexto pedagógico na Educação Básica. Neste livro, essa relação é explorada em diferentes temáticas e perspectivas: o estabelecimento da norma-padrão; o tratamento dos materiais didáticos; uso e avaliação de fenômenos variáveis; relatos de experiência e propostas pedagógicas; contexto plurilíngue e ensino de línguas estrangeiras/adicionais. Leitura essencial a professores e pesquisadores da área.
Os capítulos reunidos nesta obra formam um conjunto diversificado e rico de colaborações para a comunidade internacional dos pesquisadores interessados pela descrição do português e de outras línguas românicas. Às importantes contribuições para a descrição de variedades nacionais do português e para a distinção de características próprias às diferentes variedades de português (português europeu, português brasileiro, português santomense, português moçambicano) acrescentam-se contribuições que visam a comparar o português com outras línguas românicas (espanhol, italiano e francês), em uma perspectiva de observação e de estudo da variação linguística enquanto diassistema. As diversas temáticas abordadas e as análises linguísticas propostas fundamentam-se e diferentes abordagens teóricas complementares: a Sociolinguística variacionista, a Geolingüística e a Dialectologia, o Funcionalismo, a Linguística funcional-cognitiva, a Gramática de Construções (diassistêmica) e a Linguística Textual.

'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.
Originally published in 2011, The Mosquito Bite Author is the seventh novel by the acclaimed Turkish author Barış Bıçakçı. It follows the daily life of an aspiring novelist, Cemil, in the months after he submits his manuscript to a publisher in Istanbul. Living in an unremarkable apartment complex in the outskirts of Ankara, Cemil spends his days going on walks, cooking for his wife, repairing leaks in his neighbor’s bathroom, and having elaborate imaginary conversations in his head with his potential editor about the meaning of life and art. Uncertain of whether his manuscript will be accepted, Cemil wavers between thoughtful meditations on the origin of the universe and the trajectory of political literature in Turkey, panic over his own worth as a writer, and incredulity toward the objects that make up his quiet world in the Ankara suburbs.

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.
