A presente obra é fruto de longa e árdua pesquisa realizada pelos autores sobre os pioneiros que colonizaram o sudoeste do estado de Goiás e parte do estado de Mato Grosso, na metade do século XIX. Do estado de Minas Gerais, vieram para Goías os pioneiros José Manoel Vilela, José Antônio de Carvalho e Serafim José de Barros. De Franca, São Paulo, veio José Carvalho Bastos, juntando-se aos mineiros com o objetivo de criar gado nas pastagens naturais, ainda inexploradas, além do Rio Paranaíba. Um pouco mais tarde, chegou, também de Minas Gerais, outro pioneiro importante, que foi José Primo da Costa Lima. Posteriormente, filhos e netos desses pioneiros continuaram rumo ao oeste,...
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.
Diogo, homem simples e trabalhador, deu início a uma rede de supermercados que se tornaria incrivelmente lucrativa, tendo começado, no entanto, com um modesto armazém. Apaixonado, casou-se com Anamaria e com ela teve quatro filhos: Marcos, o primogênito, que nunca trabalhara; Tadeu, advogado incompreendido pelo pai por ser homossexual; Mariana, enfermeira; e André, espírita desde jovem, independente dos recursos do pai e próspero contador. Apesar do esforço de Diogo e do carinho de Anamaria, grande desarmonia rondava a família, devido à cobiça dos filhos pela fortuna dos pais. Quando um fato decisivo e incontrolável como a morte vem se abater sobre a família, a realidade de corrupção e interesses pessoais, por conta da herança, é o que ganha força entre os filhos de Diogo. Haverá salvação para algum deles? A benevolência atingirá algum dos corações desses familiares? Muitos serão os fatos que se desvelarão em meio a dinheiro, poder, bens valiosos, sofrimentos e, por que não, também alegrias?

The eukaryotic gene expression pathway involves a number of interlinked steps, with messenger RNA (mRNA) being the key intermediate. The precursor mRNA is transcribed from DNA, processed by removal of introns and addition of the cap structure and the poly(A) tail. The mature mRNA is then exported to the cytoplasm where it is translated into protein and finally degraded. In this process, mRNA is associated with RNA-binding proteins forming ribonucleoprotein complexes, whose protein content evolves throughout the lifetime of the mRNA. While the complexity of eukaryotic gene expression allows the production of proteins to be controlled at many levels, it also makes the process vulnerable to err...
