May 2021Fairy Tales and Classic Stories
by Rui de Oliveira
The artist Rui de Oliveira published Contos de Fadas e Histórias Clássicas. The illustrations selected and gathered here in this project are the result of many different publications and projects by the author. This is a different work that appeals to all ages, from supplying our homesickness to the most elaborate reading for a child. Instead of a selection of pasteurized figures, we have a real work of art. Rui de Oliveira shows us that this return can be through the watercolored hands of those who use their theoretical training and their international technical experience in favor of a visceral, yet docile, narrative. We can affirm that this book is perfect for lovers of literature, illustration, and painting because we learned from Mestre Rui that to illustrate it is necessary to know how to read it and be a continuous reader: “any word would be superfluous to explain it”. After all, in a text, not everything is represented and not all images are explained by words, because “for each word, a different image”. In this work meeting, we see how the master's experience with TV and animation gives movement to his illustrations. And so, in an astonished way, we are driven into the stories. And sensorially, we are absorbing the narrative details of each image. The work is divided in two parts: fairy tales and classic stories. In fairy tales, we have Beauty and the Beast, Little Red Riding Hood, Hansel and Gretel, Sleeping Beauty and Bluebeard. The classic stories include Romeo and Juliet, A Midsummer Night's Dream, The Beautiful Princess Magalona, Melusine and The Tempest. I am sure the public has read most, if not all, of them.

Literary FictionAn Act of Worship
by Kate Thompson
Sarah is taking a break from her eco-warrior activities, looking after her sister's wholefood shop in a small west of Ireland town. When a dying calf is found on the local dump, she begins to make some enquiries. Before long, the dark shadow cast by modern beef production begins to emerge in another, more sinister form, and Sarah finds that her path keeps crossing that of the town butcher, Malachy Glynn. An Act of Worship explores the ethics of beef production and the treatment of cattle in mainstream processing, and in the far less conventional approach of Malachy Glynn.
