Synopsis:

In "Latrina", Brazilian writer Alexandre Chakal takes us through a collection of short stories that occupy 88 pages.
At first glance, you may remember his first work, "Em Carne Viva e Crua" (2019 - Editora Denfire - Brazil). However, this work stands out for its own intensity and uniqueness.

Set in the heart of Rio de Janeiro, the stories explore the city's cultural richness and social diversity, mixing reality and fiction in a challenging way.

With an acidic and ironic narrative, Chakal offers a visceral portrait of the "wonderful city", where beauty coexists with violence and state neglect. Its characters, immersed in personal tragedies, reflect the raw savagery and apathy that mark urban life. "Latrina" is a provocative and intense read, revealing a disturbing side of Rio de Janeiro that few dare to expose, talk about or see.
