Bufo & Spallanzani
A morte de Delfina Delamare causou comoção na alta sociedade do Rio de Janeiro. O caso foi notícia em jornais e revistas, que especularam sobre as circunstâncias do acontecimento. A traição ao marido poderia ser um dos motivos, e Guedes, policial encarregado da investigação, terá pela frente um dos casos mais difíceis de sua carreira.Deste mote aparentemente corriqueiro, o ex-comissário Rubem Fonseca, inigualável neste tipo de narrativa, cria uma trama que desconstrói o próprio gênero policial. A história é carregada de ironia e de crítica social, marcas da escrita fonsequiana. O narrador e protagonista — um escritor chamado Ivan Canabrava, que se esconde sob o pseudônimo Gustavo Flávio, numa alusão declarada a Gustave Flaubert — é um homem amoral, solitário, com a sexualidade à flor da pele. De repente, por causa de um livro que está tentando escrever, se vê em meio a uma espiral de morte, mistério e violência, em que não há inocentes ou culpados.
