Story
Esta biografia de José de Alencar tem a peculiaridade de ter sido escrita por um quase contemporâneo seu, Sébastien Auguste Sisson, francês radicado no Rio de Janeiro. "Trinta e seis anos são passados..." escreve o autor... 36 anos desde 1822, ano da Independência do Brasil! Eis o frescor do texto. Nesta biografia, é privilegiada sua atuação política, sem referências à sua obra literária. E nessa faceta de seu caráter, em que ele pregava o respeito nas divergências de opiniões, o leitor encontra eco para a realidade dos dias de hoje.

Story
Sisson tem um ponto de vista singular sobre os biografados – o de um contemporâneo deles! Esse frescor, por si só, justifica sua leitura nos dias de hoje dessas biografias. De "Barão de Mauá", destaca-se a vertiginosa ascensão como empresário, cujo exemplo atualíssimo é ter fundando o Banco do Brasil. De "Eusébio de Queirós", é de se notar seu vigoroso combate ao crime num Rio de Janeiro assolado por ladrões e falsários.

No conto "A barganha", o leitor encontra um retrato fidedigno das dificuldades dos imigrantes nos subúrbios das cidades brasileiras. Centrado em dois personagens, o português Manuel da Silva, vendedor de sardinhas, e o turco Miguel José, vendedor de santos, o texto faz ver que impera nesse cenário o atendimento das necessidades primárias das pessoas. Em "Uma conversa vulgar", por sua vez, Lima Barreto brilha ao concentrar-se do discurso em si, tendo por assunto a história de um rapaz que é abandonado pelo pai.

Story
Hillbilly Elegy is a passionate and personal analysis of a culture in crisis - that of white working-class Americans. The decline of this group, a demographic of our country that has been slowly disintegrating over 40 years, has been reported on with growing frequency and alarm but has never before been written about as searingly from the inside. J. D. Vance tells the true story of what a social, regional, and class decline feels like when you were born with it hung around your neck.
