A chegada da adolescência vem sempre acompanhada de momentos que podem marcar nossas vidas para sempre.

O resultado são contos diversos, que emocionam, fazem rir e promovem a reflexão ao mostrarem que, mesmo que a adolescência venha de repente, a gente sempre acaba se encontrando no meio do caminho.
Antonio Candido
Here Howard Becker makes available for an English-speaking audience a collection of the provocative work of Antonio Candido, one of the leading men of letters in Brazil. Trained as a sociologist, Candido conceives of literature as a social project and is equally at home in textual analyses, discussions of literary theory, and sociological, anthropological, and historical argument. It would be impossible to overstate his impact on the intellectual life of his own country, and on Latin American scholars who can read Portuguese, but he is little known in the rest of the world. In literary, women's, and cultural studies, as well as in sociology, this book contributes a sophisticated and unusual ...

The Past
'A novel that is brilliant enough to raise itself effortlessly above and beyond the level of the vices it portrays: strange art and reckless passion, cocaine, excessive exercise and other forms of addiction' - Fabienne Dum, Le Monde RÃmini splits up with his girlfriend of twelve years, SofÃa. The parting is initially amicable and he moves on, carefree, with a new zest for life. Hungry to make up for lost time and keen to forget the past, he finds a younger girlfriend and starts using cocaine. SofÃa, however, finds herself unable to let go, and continues to reappear on RÃmini's horizon. Though the apparently idyllic relationship is over, their love has not died, merely taken on a different form. As time passes and their paths continue to cross, the past festers and torments them, like an infection.
