Publisher's summary

O livro descreve a ascensão social do comerciante português João Romão e sua rivalidade com o comendador Miranda. A narração se entrelaça com a história de vários episódios dos moradores do cortiço, cuja luta pela sobrevivência é dura e cruel mas envolvida em alegria e sensualidade. Há a transformação do português Jerônimo, que se apaixona pela mulata Rita Baiana, a vida difícil da escrava Bertoleza e o dia a dia de vários outros personagens.

O autor descreve com riqueza de imagens e figuras de linguagem o ambiente do qual os personagens derivam e pelo qual são transformados, conforme os caminhos propostos pela literatura naturalista. As ricas descrições e os diálogos envolventes são narrados com precisão pela experiente produtora de audiolivros Sandra Silvério. Uma obra de fôlego para o áudio, com mais de 20 personagens e 11 horas de duração.

Muito bom

A história é ótima e a narração muito envolvente, com um ritmo fácil de acompanhar pra quem gosta de multitask e uma interpretação muito boa. Vale a pena.

What a book!

The story gives you a good picture of how was Brasil on the IX century, you are transported to the ‘cortiço’ and get to know all the characters and their stories. Full of vivid details, colors, food, dance, music, passion and tragedy.
Definitely worth to read, no wonder it’s a classic!

Excelente narração

Bom livro para se conhecer a psique humana. É possível entender o gozo em fazer riqueza a custas dos outros no personagem mesquinho de Romão.
