Vila Mathusa
Composto por oito textos, VILA MATHUSA conta as histórias entrecruzadas de moradores transgênero que habitam uma mesma vila na capital paulista. Explorando formas e atmosferas diversas, como as narrativas de detetive, cartas e diários, a autora contempla momentos de perda, ternura, suspense e humor, sob a perspectiva de personagens tão distintos quanto Aurora e Rubi, duas crianças em um dia de aventuras, e Mathusa, a travesti que é a "matrona" da vila. Temas como o envelhecimento, os afetos e o sentido de comunidade são tratados com riqueza visual. Soma-se a isso uma cuidadosa pesquisa histórica sobre as memórias de um Brasil autoritário, que não desiste de se presentificar na vida de corpos dissidentes.

Ad Astra
Dan Wynn wanted to explore space more than life itself, but a tragic accident left him too injured for NASA's space program. Second chances don't come along every day, so when an old friend offered him one, he grabbed on with both hands. The next thing Dan knew, he was on the moon, piloting humanity's first starship while fighting his way through one peril after another. Little did Dan know that simple offer was anything but, and would lead him to the stars far beyond our own. The risks are great. But if life knocked you down, what would you gamble to have one more shot at your dreams? Excerpt: "Dan - ad astra!" Dan heard the order. Ad astra. To the stars. It was a toast the two of them had ...
