Romance perturbador, "Inventário da Sombra" é um espelho fiel de um tempo sombrio, no qual o homem é condenado a expiar culpas suas e de outrem, sem remissão possível. Álvaro Cardoso Gomes, ao tecer esta polifonia do absurdo, consegue fundir o passado mítico aos mitos degradados da contemporaneidade, fazendo que Homero e Beckett dêem-se as mãos, para construir uma tragédia imitativa baixa. E para colaborar e dar vazão a esse enredo do absurdo, a linguagem impregna-se de efeitos retóricos que tornam a prosa mais maleável, pronta a expressar cintilâncias, fulgurações. Mesclando estilos, desde o prosaísmo mais banal, que compreende, entre outras modalidades, o tom oral, a gíria, os termos baixos da escatologia, até a linguagem mais castiça e o inefável da poesia, o discurso do romance é, assim, originalíssimo por sua abrangência. É isso que se espera de um grande romance: a dissonância de um discurso que não quer apenas criar um simulacro do mundo, mas, pelo contrário, oferecer fragmentos dispersos de mundos, como a mimetizar o paroxismo da era contemporânea. (Do Prefácio.)

Inventário das sombras é o resultado de mais de duas décadas de entrevistas feitas peloescritor e jornalista José Castello com expoentes da literatura brasileira e mundial. Nesta nova edição, além dos retratos de grandes autores e autoras que compunham a primeira versão do livro, há dois retratos inéditos e um autorretrato do escritor de retratos literários. José Castello, escritor e jornalista, sempre se impressionou com o abandono dos escritores, com a solidão dos autoresatormentados pelas leituras que os influenciam, e se interessou especialmente pelas zonas sombrias em que esses artistas travam suas batalhas, pelospequenos suplícios impostos pelo mercado e pela crítica, pelas exigências da vaidade, pela loucura, enfim, que toma conta de homens e mulheres quando encaram o papel em branco, deixando em segundo plano as imagenssofisticadas e cheias de elegânciaque a mídia constrói a respeito dos artistas. Nesta nova edição de Inventário das sombras, o autortraça dezessse retratos de grandes escritores: Clarice Lispector, João Antônio, Caio Fernando Abreu, Allain Robbe-Grillet, Hilda Hilst, Manoel de Barros, Nelson Rodrigues, Adolfo Bioy Casares, Raduan Nassar, Ana Cristina Cesar, José Saramago, Dalton Trevisan, José Cardoso Pires, João Rath e Arthur Bispo do Rosário. Somam-se a estes dois retratos inéditos, dedicados a Raimundo Carrero e João Gilberto Noll, bem como o texto em que Castello dedica-se à difícil tarefa de falar de si e dos bastidores do ato de retratar aos outros. Para além das obras dos retratados, Castello foca em seus conflitos íntimos, nas suas decepções, nos seus sentimento difícieis, nos horrores, a zona de penumbra do fazer literário, e não faz isso por perversão ou porque deseja a inversão dos valores, mas sim porque prefere se ater aos momentos difíceis e nada glamuroros da escrita, porém mais expressivos de suas personalidades e fantasmagorias pessoais.

In early eighteenth-century Lisbon, Baltasar, a soldier who has lost his left hand in battle, falls in love with Blimunda, a young girl with visionary powers. From the day that he follows her home from the auto-da-fe where women are burned at the stake, the two are bound body and soul by love of an unassailable strength. A third party shares their supper that evening: Padre Bartolomeu Lourenco, whose fantasy is to invent a flying machine. As the Crown and the Church clash, they purse his impossible, not to mention heretical, dream of flight.

But when a terrorist tries to shatter that unity, a hero named Efi Oladele rises! Efi has been making robots since she was little -- machines to better her community and improve people's lives. But after she witnesses Doomfist's catastrophic attack on the city's OR15 security bots, Efi feels the call to build something greater: a true guardian of Numbani.While Doomfist sows discord between humans and omnics, Efi engineers an intelligent and compassionate robot, Orisa, named after the powerful spirits who guide her people. Orisa has a lot to learn before she's ready to defeat Doomfist, but Efi has some learning to do, too, especially when it comes to building -- and being -- a hero. With Doomfist rallying his forces, and the military powerless to stop him, can Efi mold Orisa into the hero of Numbani before it's too late?This action-packed novel features the fan-favorite characters Efi, Orisa, Doomfist, and Lúcio in an all-new, original story straight from the minds of the Overwatch game team and critically acclaimed author Nicky Drayden!

In all parts of Asia, households devote considerable expenditures to private supplementary tutoring. This tutoring may contribute to students' achievement, but it also maintains and exacerbates social inequalities, diverts resources from other uses, and can contribute to inefficiencies in education systems. Such tutoring is widely called shadow education, because it mimics school systems. As the curriculum in the school system changes, so does the shadow. This study documents the scale and nature of shadow education in different parts of the region. Shadow education has been a major phenomenon in East Asia and it has far-reaching economic and social implications.

A large percentage of workers and firms operate in the informal economy, outside the line of sight of governments in emerging market and developing economies. This may hold back the recovery in these economies from the deep recessions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic--unless governments adopt a broad set of policies to address the challenges of widespread informality. This study is the first comprehensive analysis of the extent of informality and its implications for a durable economic recovery and for long-term development. It finds that pervasive informality is associated with significantly weaker economic outcomes--including lower government resources to combat recessions, lower per capita incomes, greater poverty, less financial development, and weaker investment and productivity.

An “intricate literary mystery [of] wrenching effect” by the internationally acclaimed, bestselling author of The Club Dumas (The New Yorker). Someone has hacked into the pope’s personal computer—not to spy on the Vatican or to spread a virus, but to send an urgent plea for help: SAVE OUR LADY OF THE TEARS. The crumbling Baroque church in the heart of Seville is slated for demolition—and two of its defenders have suddenly died. Accidents? Or murders? And was the church itself somehow involved? The Vatican promptly dispatches Father Lorenzo Quart, their worldly and enormously attractive emissary, to investigate the situation, track down the hacker—known only as “Vespers”—and stay alive. Thus begins a sophisticated and utterly suspenseful page-turner that has taken its readers by storm. “An elegant thriller that is as much about the elusive quest for happiness as it is about solving the murders.” —The Denver Post “An indelible tale of love, faith, and greed.” —People, Page-Turner of the Week

"That rare person who looked like Marlene Dietrich and wrote like Virginia Woolf," Clarice Lispector is one of the most popular but least understood of Latin American writers, and now, after years of research on three continents, drawing on previously unknown manuscripts and dozens of interviews, Benjamin Moser demonstrates how Lispector's development as a writer was directly connected to the story of her turbulent life. Born in the nightmarish landscape of post-World War I Ukraine, Clarice became, virtually from adolescence, a person whose beauty, genius, and eccentricity intrigued Brazil. Why This World tells how this precocious girl, through long exile abroad and difficult personal struggles, matured into a great writer, and asserts, for the first time, the deep roots in the Jewish mystical tradition that make her the true heir to Kafka as well as the unlikely author of "perhaps the greatest spiritual autobiography of the twentieth century." From Chechelnik to Recife, from Naples and Bern to Washington and Rio de Janeiro, Why This World strips away the mythology surrounding this extraordinary figure and shows how Clarice Lispector transformed one woman's struggles into a universally resonant art. Benjamin Moser is the New Books columnist of Harper's Magazine. He was born in Houston in 1976 and currently lives in the Netherlands. He is a contributor to the The New York Review of Books, and he has written for Conde Nast Traveler and Newsweek, as well as many other publications.
