Romance

Edição bilíngue português/inglês com fotos. Eda Nagayama narra com rara sensibilidade fatos históricos pela lente de Yaser, um camponês da vila de Yanoun (Palestina). Um homem ameaçado cotidianamente no seu desejo mais simples: viver em sua terra com sua família. Quem o ameaça? Na narrativa ficcional de Yaser encontramos a história do povo palestino que sofre continuamente as políticas coloniais de Israel. A catástrofe de um povo, aqui, tem nome, pele, sonhos, medo e esperança. Somos afetados a cada palavra pelo drama de Yaser. E as palavras são as sementes que Eda espalha pelas páginas deste livro. Colhê-las é uma experiência de transformação, de produção de empatia profunda não exclusivamente com Yaser, mas com o povo palestino. (Berenice Bento, Depto. Sociologia, UnB) / O livro contém fotos tiradas pela autora.

Portuguese/English edition with photos. With unique sensibility, Eda Nagayama narrates historical facts viewed through the lens of Yaser, a farmer from the village of Yanoun (Palestine). A man whose simplest desire is threatened every single day: to live in his land with his family. Who threatens him? In Yaser's fictional narrative, we find the history of the Palestinian people, who continuously suffer Israel's colonial policies. Here, the catastrophe of a people has a name, skin, dreams, fear, and hope. We are touched by every word of Yaser's drama. And those words are seeds scattered by Eda throughout the pages of this book. Picking them is a transforming experience that instills in us a profound empathy not only for Yaser, but for the Palestinian people as a whole. (Berenice Bento, Sociology Dept., University of Brasilia) / The book contains photos by the author.
