520    $a Known and celebrated in Brazil and abroad for his novel Resistance, Julián Fuks returns to his auto-fictional alter-ego Sebastián in a narrative alternating between the writer's conversations with refugees occupying a building in downtown São Paulo, his father's sickness, and his wife's pregnancy. With impeccable prose, the author builds associations that go beyond the obvious, not only between glimpsing a life's beginning and end, but also between the building's occupation and his wife's pregnancy, showcasing the various forms of occupation while exposing the frailty of life, the risk of solitude, and the brutality of not belonging.
