Supernormal

Lançado em tempos de divisão e intolerância, Supernormal é um livro delicado, contundente.Beto leva uma vida normal, dividida entre um emprego no escritório de advocacia da mãe, almoços com os colegas de trabalho e os discos das suas bandas de rock preferidas. Até que seu mundo vira de cabeça para baixo quando depara com Helena, pessoa de quem foi melhor amigo na adolescência e que hoje é uma mulher trans. Se em um primeiro momento Beto fica obcecado em compreender a transição que ela enfrentou, logo passa a questionar outra realidade: a sua própria. Revendo privilégios e preconceitos, ele descobre que precisa escolher um lado. O preço disso, porém, pode ser mais alto do que imagina."Supernormal não é exatamente um livro sobre nós, pessoas trans, mas sobre uma personagem que, ao estranhar nossa existência, passa a estranhar a sua própria e os motivos que tornariam temerária nossa tão característica ousadia de lutar pelo que somos e pelo que dá sentido à nossa vida." — Amara Moira, travesti, doutora pela Unicamp e autora de E se eu fosse puta

The Sports Writing Handbook

Completely revised and updated in a second edition, this volume represents the only book ever written that analyzes sports writing and presents it as "exceptional" writing. Other books discuss sports writers as "beat reporters" in one area of journalism, whereas this book shows aspiring sports writers a myriad of techniques to make their writing stand out. It takes the reader through the entire process of sports writing: observation, interviewing techniques, and various structures of articles; types of "leads;" transitions within an article; types of endings; use of statistics; do's and don'ts of sports writing; and many other style and technique points.
