“This is not,” Luiz Vilela clarifies, “a theoretical lecture, nor a lecture with practical objectives, much less anything to do with self-help.” The lecture, he says, will be a journey through his work—from his early fiction, published in newspapers and not collected in a book, to his most recent book, the novel “Perdição,” which will be released in early 2005 by Editora Record—with a reading of the most significant passages on the subject to the audience.

Speaker: Luiz Vilela
Discussor: Professor Maria Antonieta Pereira, Faculty of Letters, UFMG
