Story
A valentia do gaúcho, estampada com o colorido peculiar da linguagem de Simões Lopes Neto, conduz os enredos desses dois contos aqui reunidos. Em tom de "causo", "Juca Guerra" traz a história do protagonista, centrada na bravura que demostrou num rodeio dos pampas. "Contrabandista", por sua vez, faz um recorte da vida de Jango Jorge, no dia do casamento da filha; além disso, o conto é um registo histórico do contrabando na fronteira sul do país.

Story
A arte imita a vida ou vice-versa? Eis a questão que perpassa "Meu conto de Maupassant". Nele, dois amigos conversam num trem que percorre o Vale do Paraíba, e um deles conta uma história de suspense, aos moldes do escrito francês. Já em "Bucólica", um narrador voyeur caminha por uma estrada no interior e vai contando o que vê, num tom crescente de desalento com a natureza humana.

Esses dois contos de Alberto Braga, extraídos do livro "Contos da Aldeia", exploram os sentimentos das pessoas simples do interior de Portugal. Em "As arrecadas da caseira", encontramos a história da tia Custodia da Moita, vítima da exploração do proprietário insensível das terras em que trabalha. E em "Está no céu", o tema do soldado morto em batalha deixa ver a dor de Maria La Courdaye, cuja marido não volta da Guerra da Crimeia.

"Príncipe ou condutor de ônibus?" O protagonista de "A segunda vida", José Maria, está prestes a voltar à Terra depois de ter morrido; recusando a esta escolha do tipo de vida que lhe é oferecida, prefere – e ganha – o direito de nascer consciente da vida passada. Ao leitor do século XXI, o conto de Machado de Assis oferece uma curiosa analogia com a "second life".

A figura do "caboclo" faz a ponte entre esses textos de Monteiro Lobato. Na crônica "Velha praga", um tema atualíssimo é abordado: as queimadas; em 1914, elas devastaram a Serra da Mantiqueira, sendo o caboclo o responsável. Já no conto "Café! Café!", compara-se a estupidez do caboclo à do Major Mimbuia, plantador de café que tudo perde e enlouquece com a queda do preço do café.

Ler a obra de Antonil tem muito de ler um jornal ou guia – mas as notícias e os cenários são do início do século XVIII. Neste excerto, destacam-se as minas de ouro e todo seu entorno: a qualidade do metal, as gentes, a corrupção e a política do quinto. Pitoresco demais, o texto fala da mineração em Curitiba e no Pico do Jaraguá, de uma pepita do tamanho de uma língua de boi e da travessia da Serra da "Amantiqueira".

But Threshing was only the first impossible test meant to weed out the weak-willed, the unworthy, and the unlucky. Now the real training begins, and Violet’s already wondering how she’ll get through. It’s not just that it’s grueling and maliciously brutal, or even that it’s designed to stretch the riders’ capacity for pain beyond endurance. It’s the new vice commandant, who’s made it his personal mission to teach Violet exactly how powerless she is–unless she betrays the man she loves.

Our ability to prevent and reverse these conditions—and feel incredible today—is under our control and simpler than we think. The key is our metabolic function—the most important and least understood factor in our overall health. As Dr. Casey Means explains in this book, nearly every health problem we face can be explained by how well the cells in our body create and use energy. To live free from frustrating symptoms and life-threatening disease, we need our cells to be optimally powered so that they can create “good energy,” the essential fuel that impacts every aspect of our wellbeing.
