David is a 13-year-old boy living with his family in a modest home in Foz do Iguaçu, Paraná - Brazil. His father, a despicable alcoholic who finds pleasure in abusing his wife during his spare time, is found murdered one night outside a nightclub. After an investigation, the police conclude that all evidence points to a single suspect: the boy himself, David. The problem arises when David's mother is also murdered shortly afterward, and now both deaths are attributed to him. His father was worthless; but why would David kill his own mother? The explanation comes from a medical report that identifies David as having serious mental disorders. Consequently, David is locked away in a psychiatric hospital. However, it's precisely there that he suspects he's being ensnared in a terrifying plot, something that could alter his entire life course. But what secret could be behind the deaths of the boy's parents? Doubting his own sanity, David begins to investigate, but each discovery only raises more questions, and the young man is faced with a disturbing dilemma: to what extent can he believe in his own reality?

Pandemics and Resilience: Lessons we should have learned from Zika

The aim of the book was to produce the most comprehensive examination of a pandemic that has ever been attempted. By cataloging the full extent of the Zika pandemic, this book will be the most complete history and epistemic contextualization ever attempted to date. The work should function as the primary source for students, researchers, and scholars who need information about the Zika pandemic. This book examines the technical literature, digital and popular literature, and online materials to fully contextualize this event and provide a bona fide record of this event and its implications for the future. It is somewhat serendipitous that while this work was underway, we are going through an...

Archie Green

Archie Green: The Making of a Working-Class Hero celebrates one of the most revered folklorists and labor historians of the twentieth century. Devoted to understanding the diverse cultural customs of working people, Archie Green (1917–2009) tirelessly documented these traditions and educated the public about the place of workers' culture and music in American life. Doggedly lobbying Congress for support of the American Folklife Preservation Act of 1976, Green helped establish the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress, a significant collection of images, recordings, and written accounts that preserve the myriad cultural productions of Americans. Capturing the many dimensions of Green's remarkably influential life and work, Sean Burns draws on extensive interviews with Green and his many collaborators to examine the intersections of radicalism, folklore, labor history, and worker culture with Green's work. Burns closely analyzes Green's political genealogy and activist trajectory while illustrating how he worked to open up an independent political space on the American Left that was defined by an unwavering commitment to cultural pluralism.

Dias de Lua

Dias de Lua é, sobretudo, um livro sobre a natureza humana e as insatisfações geradas pela mesmice cotidiana, explorando o limite entre o ponderável e o insano na busca por uma autorealização muitas vezes utópica. A obra apresenta conflitos, tensões, dramas existenciais e angústias em um cenário emblemático e desolador. Gaspar é um homem peculiar. Por trás de seu aparente autocontrole e sua vida tranquila, há uma insatisfação doentia pelo que o cotidiano lhe proporciona. É rabugento e aponta o que ele próprio considera defeitos nas pessoas. As atitudes da esposa o incomodam, o namorado da filha o incomoda, a maneira como as pessoas encaram a vida o incomoda, e até os nomes da esposa e da filha o incomodam. Dias de Lua é, ao mesmo tempo, um romance sobre a insatisfação e as consequências desastrosas geradas por decisões equivocadas.

As Paredes Eram Brancas

David é um garoto de apenas 13 anos e vive com a família em uma casa simples na cidade de Foz do Iguaçu, no Paraná. Seu pai, um alcoólatra escroto que se diverte ao espancar a esposa nas horas vagas, é assassinado de madrugada na saída de uma boate. Após algum tempo de investigação, a polícia percebe que todas as pistas convergem para uma única suspeita: o garoto teria matado o próprio pai. O problema é que a mãe de David também é assassinada pouco tempo depois, e agora, as duas mortes são atribuídas a ele. O pai não valia nada; mas por que David mataria a própria mãe? A explicação vem de um laudo médico que aponta para um garoto com sérios transtornos mentais. Então, David é trancafiado num hospital psiquiátrico. Só que é justamente lá que ele suspeita que está sendo envolvido em uma trama assustadora, algo que pode mudar toda a sua trajetória. Mas que segredo poderia estar por trás da morte dos pais do garoto? Duvidando da própria sanidade, David começa a investigar, mas todas as descobertas só levantam mais dúvidas, e o rapaz se vê diante de uma pergunta perturbadora: até que ponto ele pode acreditar na própria realidade?
