Educação da tristeza (Education of Sadness) by Valter Hugo Mãe, recently released, is the book chosen for the 14th edition of the Reading Club.

The dynamics of participation in the Club are as follows:

Registration is mandatory for each edition;
We recommend reading the book assigned to each edition, but it is not mandatory;
The meetings will last 1 hour and 30 minutes.
"The size of life is all within love.
If we love, we are vast, infinite.
If we do not love, we gather like meaningless, worthless bits of dust."

The people we lose add up. They add to the absence, but they are our most delicate heritage, a refuge of fortune and longing that we hold more dearly than gold.

In these texts, Valter Hugo Mãe reveals some of his most precious gold. A very intimate portrait of sadness that does not want to be victorious. Quite the contrary. A polite sadness does not disappear, it becomes respectful of the need to survive, to continue to remember, to continue to love.
