hardcover. "Tudo, no mundo, existe para acabar em um livro." - Stéphane Mallarmé "De onde tiro tanto tempo para não ler tanta coisa?" - Karl Kraus "Uma pessoa que quer escrever coisas boas precisa ler coisas ótimas." - Ursula K. Le Guin Um livro-agenda pensado para amantes da literatura. Aqueles que fazem de tudo para encaixar uma leitura entre um compromisso e outro. Aforismos - Escritores e seu ofício é um planner (ou seja, uma agenda permanente, não datada), mas é também um livro. Enquanto o leitor folheia as páginas dedicadas à organização de suas tarefas e compromissos, ao longo de 54 semanas, acompanha uma seleção de 50 aforismos em que escritores e escritoras refletem sobre o seu ofício: ler, escrever, viver de literatura. De uma citação bíblica (sobre fazer livros!) a observações afiadas, o volume reúne frases de 50 escritores de séculos, latitudes e continentes diferentes. De grandes nomes da literatura brasileira, como Machado de Assis e Graciliano Ramos, a nomes essenciais da escrita contemporânea, como Jesmyn Ward e Bernardine Evaristo, sem deixar de lado clássicos como Jane Austen ou Gustave Flaubert. O livro-agenda traz páginas iniciais para planejamento mensal e, em seguida, cada página dupla é dedicada a uma semana. Ao final do volume, há páginas destinadas a um registro das leituras do ano, além, claro, de espaço para montar a lista dos livros que estão na fila para leitura. Encadernado em capa dura, com lombo redondo (para facilitar a abertura) e um fitilho em gorgurão servindo como marca-página, o volume traz, na capa, a referência a uma técnica milenar de decoração de livros, a marmorização. O planner está disponível em quatro modelos, com quatro capas variadas.
