«Tutameia. Terze storie» is a collection of short stories by João Guimarães Rosa, published by Del Vecchio Editore in paperback (282 pages, in Italian).
Forty short stories and four prefaces show a peculiar facet of Guimarães Rosa, far from his extensive novels. The stories take place in rural Brazil's sertão and the Central-West: farms, small towns, cowboys, loves, crimes, and portraits of misery and wealth that do not depend on money, with images, places, and perceptions.
First Italian translation of 2015; original «Tutaméia (Terceiras Estórias)», from 1967. Part of the Formebrevi series, 11, translated by Virginia Caporali and Roberto Francavilla.
Will interest readers of Brazilian literature and short fiction, as well as those who want to discover Guimarães Rosa beyond his extensive novels.
João Guimarães Rosa was a Brazilian novelist, short story writer, poet and diplomat.
