A worldwide classic of children's literature - a moving, life-affirming childhood story, finally available in English again Meet Zezé - Brazil's naughtiest and most loveable boy, his talent for mischief matched only by his great kindness. When he grows up he wants to be a 'poet with a bow-tie' but for now he entertains himself playing pranks on the residents of his family's poor Rio de Janeiro neighbourhood and inventing friends to play with. That is, until he meets a real friend, and his life begins to change... My Sweet Orange Tree is a worldwide classic of children's literature – never out of print in Brazil since it was first published in 1968, it has also been translated into an astonishing number of languages and won the hearts of millions of young readers from Korea to turkey, Poland to Thailand and in many other countries too. José Mauro de Vasconcelos (1920-84) was a Brazilian writer who worked as a sparring partner for boxers, a labourer on a banana farm, and a fisherman before he started writing at the age of 22. He is most famous for his autobiographical novel My Sweet Orange Tree, which tells the story of his own childhood in Rio de Janeiro.

Long before Oliver Sacks became a distinguished neurologist and bestselling writer, he was a small English boy fascinated by metals–also by chemical reactions (the louder and smellier the better), photography, squids and cuttlefish, H.G. Wells, and the periodic table. In this endlessly charming and eloquent memoir, the author of The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat and Awakenings chronicles his love affair with science and the magnificently odd and sometimes harrowing childhood in which that love affair unfolded. In Uncle Tungsten we meet Sacks’ extraordinary family, from his surgeon mother (who introduces the fourteen-year-old Oliver to the art of human dissection) and his father, a family doctor who imbues in his son an early enthusiasm for housecalls, to his “Uncle Tungsten,” whose factory produces tungsten-filament lightbulbs. We follow the young Oliver as he is exiled at the age of six to a grim, sadistic boarding school to escape the London Blitz, and later watch as he sets about passionately reliving the exploits of his chemical heroes–in his own home laboratory. Uncle Tungsten is a crystalline view of a brilliant young mind springing to life, a story of growing up which is by turns elegiac, comic, and wistful, full of the electrifying joy of discovery.

The Book of Disquiet is one of the great literary works of the twentieth century. Written over the course of Fernando Pessoa's life, it was first published in 1982, pieced together from the thousands of individual manuscript pages left behind by Pessoa after his death in 1935. Now this fragmentary modernist masterpiece appears in a major new edition that unites Margaret Jull Costa's celebrated translation with the most complete version of the text ever produced. It is presented here, for the first time in English, by order of original composition, and accompanied by facsimiles of the original manuscript. Narrated principally by an assistant bookkeeper named Bernardo Soares - an alias of sorts for Pessoa himself - The Book of Disquiet is 'the autobiobraphy of someone who never existed', a mosaic of dreams, of hope and despair; a hymn to the streets and cafs of 1930s Lisbon, and an extraordinary record of the inner life of one of the century's most important writers. This new edition represents the most complete vision of Pessoa's genius.

Conteúdo: Campo Geral; Uma estória de amor; A estória de Lélio e Lina. Neste livro, encontram-se reunidos um conjunto de novelas rurais de Guimarães Rosa. Este livro é marcado por narrativas pontuadas com características do sertão brasileiro, como a dança e a música, e um cenário vasto que configura o mundo peculiar que permite aos personagens buscar seus próprios destinos. Drelina era bonita: tinha cabelos compridos, louros. O Dito e Tomezinho eram ruivados. Só Miguilim e a Chica é que tinham cabelo preto, igual ao da mãe. O Dito se parecia muito com o pai, Miguilim era o retrato da mãe. Mas havia ainda um irmão, o mais velho de todos, Liovaldo, que não morava no Mutúm. Ninguém se lembrava mais de que ele fosse de que feições.

As duas novelas que compõem este livro faziam parte de Corpo de baile, livro de João Guimarães Rosa que, em sua 3a edição, foi dividido em três volumes independentes: Manuelzão e Miguilim, No Urubuquaquá, no Pinhém e Noites do sertão.A primeira delas, "Campo Geral", conta a estória de "um certo Miguilim" que "morava com sua mãe, seu pai e seus irmãos, longe, muito longe daqui", no Mutúm, no meio dos Campos Gerais. A novela retrata seu mundo infantil, povoado de entes e palavras, ainda sem a rigidez de um universo sistemático, onde, a cada dia, ele tenta entender a vida ("Dito, como é que a gente sabe certo como não deve de fazer alguma coisa, mesmo os outros não estando vendo?"), com a ajuda dos brinquedos inventados, dos bichos, das outras crianças, dos adultos e, sobretudo, das estórias que inventa.A segunda, "Uma estória de amor", narra os preparativos e a festa de consagração de uma capela construída por Manuelzão, administra dor da Samarra, um lugar "nem fazenda, só reposto, um currais-de-gado, pobre e novo ali entre o Rio e a Serra-dos-Gerais". Toda a novela desenvolve-se em torno de um levante de boiada, que serve de ligação entre as cenas e de imagem para o próprio povo em festa; e, como num acampamento de vaqueiros, uma travessia se perfaz quando a estranheza de um acontecimento (a festa) remete Manuelzão a um mundo em que "tudo virava outro", e ele descobre também uma vida que não viveu, que não sabia.À infância de Miguilim reúne-se a velhice que Manuelzão sente chegar e que traz um outro recomeçar: "De todo não queria parar, não quereria suspeitar em sua natureza própria de um anúncio de desando, o desmancho, no ferro do corpo. Resistiu. Temia tudo da morte." A mesma morte que ronda as crianças nos lugarejos distantes, onde não há recursos. O mesmo medo de se ir para o escuro da mata, sozinhos, debaixo de chuva, a gente sempre pequenos.

A infância é o tempo de descobertas. É a fase da vida em que o ser humano recebe e retribui os sentimentos à sua volta com maior vigor e integridade. Com Miguilim, menino que protagoniza esta novela de João Guimarães Rosa, não é diferente. Contudo, a visão de mundo repleta de sensibilidade que vinca a personalidade da criança transforma o conjunto de situações que ela experimenta num redemoinho sem precedentes de sensações. Os leitores de Campo Geral naturalmente se envolvem e se emocionam ao tomar contato com as impressões e conclusões do menino sobre o mundo que o cerca. Tanto os medos mais profundos de Miguilim quanto seus sonhos mais intensos são concebidos pelo pincel multicor de Guimarães Rosa. O convívio familiar, o cultivo das amizades, a dura vida no sertão e a necessidade incontornável de encarar os desafios que a condição humana apresenta são elementos centrais desta narrativa. Neste livro, tem-se o privilégio de captar o âmago da vida no sertão através do olhar de uma criança, uma escolha que revela a grandeza literária de Guimarães Rosa.

'A man's story is always badly told. That's because a person never stops being born. Nobody leads one sole life, we are all multiplied into different and ever-changeable men.' So it is with all the stories in this collection, which never make a definitive judgement on the individual life, but only suggest its possibilities. Set in Mozambique, the stories reflect the legacy of Portuguese colonialism and the tragedy of the subsequent civil war. Mia Couto's first collection, Voices Made Night, was described as 'lyrical', 'magical' and 'compassionate' by the reviewers, who were unanimous in identifying a significant new talent from the continent. This volume confirms that judgement.
