Uma Semana Decisiva

capa livro uma semana decisiva-final (003)

Sinopse:

Léo é um homem do tempo atual, com sessenta anos, leva vida saudável, se cuida, está solteiro depois de dois casamentos, porém se divertiu muito na vida. O personagem principal faz um cruzeiro por cinco cidades do Mediterrâneo Oriental, durante uma semana que será importante para ele, para os demais personagens da obra e os da vida real da história recente do Brasil.

Na semana decisiva de 2016, o Brasil passa por um dos momentos mais dramáticos e decisivos da política contemporânea. Nela é decidido o passo mais importante para o impeachment de Dilma Rouseff, em cenário da Lava Jato.

A trama permite mostrar o marxismo cultural, a partir do golpe de 1964, e o nascimento da nova direita, de 2013, a partir de notícias da vida real daquela semana, além de discussões sobre as bandeiras da esquerda: racismo, homofobia e feminismo.

Léo tem problemas naturais de idade e tormento afetivo interior, os quais deverão ser resolvidos por ele para que alcance a mulher com que poderá viver o resto de sua vida, enquanto contempla o turbilhão de acontecimentos na esteira de borbulhas das hélices do navio.

A raridade deste romance está no fato que é escrito com viés de tendência política de centro ou de direita, já que é difícil encontrar escritor de ficção que não seja de esquerda com o consequente direcionamento de seus pensamentos nas obras que escrevem.

Family Trust

Autor: Wang,Kathy
Sinópse: Meet Stanley Huang: father, husband, ex-husband, man of unpredictable tastes and temper, aficionado of all-inclusive vacations and bargain luxury goods, newly diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. For years, Stanley has claimed that he’s worth a small fortune. But the time is now coming when the details of his estate will finally be revealed, and Stanley’s family is nervous.For his son, Fred, the inheritance Stanley has long alluded to would soothe the pain caused by years of professional disappointment. By now, the Harvard Business School graduate had expected to be a financial tech god—not a minor investor at a middling corporate firm where he isn’t even allowed to fly business class.Stanley’s daughter, Kate, is a middle manager with one of Silicon Valley’s most prestigious tech companies. She manages the capricious demands of her world-famous boss and the needs of her two young children all while supporting her would-be entrepreneur husband (just until his startup gets off the ground, which will surely be soon). But lately, Kate has been sensing something is amiss; just because you say you have it all, it doesn’t mean that you actually do. Stanley’s second wife, Mary Zhu, twenty-eight years his junior, has devoted herself to making her husband comfortable in every way—rubbing his feet, cooking his favorite dishes, massaging his ego. But lately, her commitment has waned; caring for a dying old man is far more difficult than she expected.Linda Liang, Stanley’s first wife, knows her ex better than anyone. She worked hard for decades to ensure their financial security, and is determined to see her children get their due. Single for nearly a decade, she might finally be ready for some romantic companionship. But where does a seventy-two-year-old Chinese woman in California go to find an appropriate boyfriend?As Stanley’s death approaches, the Huangs are faced with unexpected challenges that upend them and eventually lead them to discover what they most value. A compelling tale of cultural expectations, career ambitions and our relationships with the people who know us best, Family Trust skewers the ambition and desires that drive Silicon Valley and draws a sharply loving portrait of modern American family life.
