AteÌ que, nos jardins romaÌnticos do PalaÌcio de Cristal, no Porto, a coberto da copa das aÌrvores, apareceu um corpo enterrado sob a terra, dividido em vaÌrias partes. PoreÌm, a nova investigaçaÌo do inspetor Jaime Ramos (que entretanto fora substituiÌdo na divisaÌo de homiciÌdios) naÌo começa com a descoberta desse cadaÌver; pelo contraÌrio, obriga-o a recuar no passado, a ouvir testemunhos sobre vaidade, vingança, literatura e ambiçaÌo, e tambeÌm histoÌrias de famiÌlia ou de amor e melancolia. Enquanto o confinamento se espalha sobre vivos e desaparecidos, Jaime Ramos reconstitui a biografia daquela mulher e a histoÌria de uma famiÌlia e de uma genealogia do poder nas margens da tradiçaÌo judaica portuense, confrontando-se mais uma vez com as suas obsessoÌes: a ameaça da idade e da memoÌria, a fragilidade dos velhos e a reconstituiçaÌo do passado. EntaÌo, o que poderia ser apenas uma histoÌria de inveja e traiçaÌo entre intelectuais desavindos e coÌmicos, transforma-se num inqueÌrito sobre a melancolia portuguesa." -- $c back cover 520 $a "Over the course of a year, between a literary meeting in PoÌvoa de Varzim and the start of the pandemic, no one knew the whereabouts of Cristina Pinho Ferraz, an extravagant, award-winning and feared writer. Until, in the romantic gardens of the PalaÌcio de Cristal, in Porto, under cover of the canopy of trees, a body appeared buried under the earth, divided into several parts. However, the new investigation by inspector Jaime Ramos (who had meanwhile been replaced in the homicide division) does not begin with the discovery of this body; on the contrary, it forces you to step back into the past, to listen to testimonies about vanity, revenge, literature and ambition, as well as family stories of love and melancholy. While confinement spreads over the living and the missing, Jaime Ramos reconstructs that woman's biography and the history of a family and a genealogy of power on the margins of Porto's Jewish tradition, confronting himself once again with his obsessions: the threat of age and memory, the fragility of the elderly and the reconstitution of the past. So, what could just be a story of envy and betrayal between alienated and comical intellectuals, becomes an inquiry into Portuguese melancholy." -- $c Cataloger's translation of the synopsis on the cover 546 $a In Portuguese. 600 10 $a Ramos, Jamie $c (Inspector) (fictious character from Francisco JoseÌ Viegas) $v fiction. 650 0 $a Murder $x Investigation $z Portugal $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Authors $x Death $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Jewish families $z Portugal $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Police $z Portugal $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Authors $x Death. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00821699 650 7 $a Jewish families. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00982765 650 7 $a Murder $x Investigation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01029788 650 7 $a Police. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01068398 651 7 $a Portugal. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01208476 655 7 $a Cozy mysteries. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst02010328 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726581 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Novels. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01921742 655 7 $a Cozy mysteries. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117023822.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2785C5AEF47811EDA3FB15433FECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
