Rui Zink, born in Lisbon in 1961, is one of the most singular voices in contemporary Portuguese literature. A writer, teacher and intellectual provocateur, he has built a body of work marked by irony, social critique and the rare ability to turn everyday life into a revealing absurdity. In books such as O Destino Turístico, A Instalação do Medo or Hotel Lusitano, he explores the tension between fantasy and reality: humour as a sharp form of thought.
Born in 1982 in Córdoba, Argentina.
She was a sex worker, a street seller and a housemaid. She is a writer, actress and singer. One of the most important voices in contemporary Latin American literature.
On page 47, a reference to Aristotle's "Poetics": "A likely impossibility is always preferable to an unconvincing possibility." We'll have "L'Homme compassionnel" for Christmas.
Born in Ukraine, raised in Brazil. One of the most singular figures in 20th century literature. «Even cutting away your own defects can be dangerous. You never know which defect is holding up the whole building.»
Funded by the European Union, NextGenerationEU, under the Recovery and Resilience Plan (PRR).
