About the Book

ENGLISH SYNOPSIS: The Contemporary Brazilian Short Stories (CBSS) initiative was conceived in January 2011, when Brazilian authors of different ages, regions and backgrounds were first contacted about the opportunity to have their work translated into English. In June 2011, we started posting the content to BrazilianShortStories.com, which is updated twice a month, with a new story every 1st and 15th day. The main idea behind presenting this collection online and in book form is to publish the work of contemporary authors from Brazil who have not always had a chance to let their voices be carried to all corners of the world. In translation, the reach of their work in English could be far wider and may bring a piece of Brazil to many readers the world over. And this is exactly the purpose of CBSS: to facilitate the access of international readers to stories written from a Brazilian perspective. Our goal is to touch such varied themes as personal and professional life, love, loneliness, comedy, crime, environment, and random observations of daily routines. Here you'll read twenty-four stories that were originally published online between July 2013 and July 2014. They are organized alphabetically in two sections: The first one is in English, accompanied by the author's biography, and the second one is in the original Portuguese, also displaying the author's contact info. We hope you enjoy these stories and continue to discover our Brazilian talents. SINOPSE EM PORTUGUÊS Contemporary Brazilian Short Stories (CBSS) é uma iniciativa literária que foi criada em janeiro de 2011, quando escritores brasileiros de idades, regiões e experiências diversas foram procurados para ter uma oportunidade de ver seu trabalho traduzido para o inglês. Em junho de 2011, começamos a publicar o conteúdo no site BrazilianShortStories.com, que é atualizado duas vezes ao mês, todo dia 1° e 15. A ideia principal por trás desta coletânea, apresentada on-line e em formato de livro, é publicar o trabalho de escritores contemporâneos do Brasil que nem sempre têm uma chance de ver suas vozes alcançando os quatro cantos do mundo. Por meio da tradução, o alcance do seu trabalho em inglês poderia ser bem mais amplo e levar um pedacinho do Brasil para muitos leitores pelo mundo inteiro. E é exatamente esse o propósito do CBSS: facilitar o acesso dos leitores internacionais às histórias escritas desde um ponto de vista brasileiro. Nosso objetivo é explorar temas variados, de vida profissional à pessoal, amor, solidão, comédia, crime, meio ambiente e observações aleatórias do cotidiano. Aqui, você vai ler vinte e quarto contos publicados originalmente entre julho de 2013 e julho de 2014, organizados alfabeticamente em duas partes: a primeira está em inglês e vem acompanhada da biografia de cada autor; a segunda, apresenta o original em português e as informações de contato. Esperamos que você goste destes contos e continue descobrindo os nossos talentos brasileiros.
