Rate this book
Após ter publicado a primeira tradução para o português do romance Tchevengur, a Editora Ars et Vita apresenta aos leitores brasileiros uma seleção de contos do escritor russo Andrei Platônov, organizados e traduzidos por Maria Vragova. A coletânea será publicada em três volumes, contemplando 24 contos do autor russo e conta com ilustrações de renomados artistas visuais brasileiros. O primeiro volume, Iúchka e outras histórias, é composto por oito contos, escritos entre a década de 1930 e os anos pós-Guerra de 1940: A borboleta colorida, Iúchka, O curso do tempo, De bom coração, Toda a vida, O dom da vida, Afônia e A Oitavinha. Abordando temas essenciais da humanidade e, em particular, uma percepção filosófica do destino humano em meio ao percurso histórico, a presente edição tece ainda um diálogo entre os textos de um dos nomes incontornáveis da literatura do século XX e a obra visual do artista capixaba Rick Rodrigues, convidado a criar uma série de trabalhos inéditos inspirados nos contos de Andrei Platônov.

About the author

Andrei Platonov

267 books456 followers
Andrei Platonov, August 28, 1899 – January 5, 1951, was the pen name of Andrei Platonovich Klimentov, a Soviet author whose works anticipate existentialism. Although Platonov was a Communist, his works were banned in his own lifetime for their skeptical attitude toward collectivization and other Stalinist policies.

From 1918 through 1921, his most intensive period as a writer, he published dozens of poems (an anthology appeared in 1922), several stories, and hundreds of articles and essays, adopting in 1920 the Platonov pen-name by which he is best-known. With remarkably high energy and intellectual precocity he wrote confidently across a wide range of topics including literature, art, cultural life, science, philosophy, religion, education, politics, the civil war, foreign relations, economics, technology, famine, and land reclamation, amongst others.

His famous works include the novels The Foundation Pit and Chevengur.
