LESSING, DORIS
ANDANDO NA SOMBRA
CIA DAS LETRAS. new. Ao desembarcar em Londres em 1949 com um filho de dois anos e o manuscrito de seu primeiro romance na mala Doris Lessing conheceu a fundo a vida numa grande cidade do p�s-guerra. Em meio aos quarteir�es de casas vazias com ruas desabitadas e pr�dios bombardeados sobreviventes de campos de concentra��o refugiados e exilados pol�ticos viviam seu cotidiano repleto de agruras mas tamb�m de esperan�as. Em Andando na sombra - segundo volume de sua autobiografia iniciada com Debaixo da minha pele Companhia das Letras 1997 - Doris Lessing passa em revista esse per�odo crucial de sua forma��o que se estende de 1949 a 1962. Com honestidade e lucidez invej�veis Lessing narra o desabrochar de suas paix�es pol�ticas e amorosas. Paralelamente ao trajeto pessoal da autora Andando na sombra revela tamb�m as profundas transforma��es por que passavam ent�o os costumes as rela��es interfamiliares a condi��o feminina os tabus sexuais.

CIA DAS LETRAS. new. Roz e Lil so amigas inseparveis desde a infncia. Cresceram casaram tiveram filhos e vivem na paradis�aca bacia de Baxter um lugar cercado de rochas por todos os lados. O ambiente protegido ""bocejante"" alm do qual o ""verdadeiro oceano rugia e roncava"" o cenrio ideal para uma relao cada vez mais simbi�tica. Morando em casas vizinhas elas criam os filhos por conta pr�pria - e eles se tornam adolescentes encantadores. To encantadores e pr�ximos que Roz e Lil no tardam a se envolver uma com o filho da outra. Num efeito amb�guo e desconcertante t�pico da grande literatura o que poderia parecer repulsivo tratado com naturalidade e bom-humor fazendo a quebra de tabus soar como regra e no como dramtica exceo. Temas como amizade maternidade e sexualidade ganham novos contornos enquanto Doris Lessing esmia as complexidades e armadilhas da forte ligao entre essas duas mulheres e retrata a fora com que elas confrontam as convenes familiares e sociais de sua poca.
