9786561280402FOCO EDITORA. new. O livro de Guilherme Figueira comea descrevendo o vel�rio de um pai de fam�lia. Ao contr�rio da expectativa sugerida pelo cen�rio o tom da narrativa se esquiva solenidade: � ""no eram muitos os presentes na cerimnia e Miguel no deixava de pensar nisso de forma irritada no que considerava um sinal de desprest�gio do morto. Pode-se questionar se � poss�vel um morto sentir-se prestigiado ou no mas esse era o sentimento de Miguel �"". Como o leitor pode ver essa fico comea sob o signo da ironia.Segue-se uma esp�cie de descrio antropol�gica de um ritual fnebre. A capela onde � velado o defunto as capelas vizinhas etc. E em meio a essa etnografia ficcional emergem os personagens que compem a fam�lia do morto.A princ�pio o cen�rio parece se sobrepor aos elementos humanos. A ironia por sua vez continua a se insinuar nas frestas do texto: ""Carlos tinha noventa anos. Morreu dormindo como tantas pessoas sonham em morrer se � que tantas pessoas sonham em morrer.""A narrativa minuciosa de Guilherme Figueira faz pensar que ser� sempre movida por essa ironia e que seus personagens sero figuras vagamente humanizadas fantasm�ticas como em alguns exemplares do nouveau roman dos anos 60. No entanto seus personagens ganham matizes. So pessoas comuns pertencentes a uma fam�lia de classe m�dia vivendo uma vida comum. E eis que se deparam com o acontecimento mais comum e inevit�vel da vida: a morte.Cada um dos filhos do morto emerge do papel com uma personalidade que se delineia aos poucos. � um �lbum de fam�lia com figuras contrastantes arquet�picas. Depois do cen�rio in�spito do cemit�rio num paradoxo semntico: como chamar de in�spito um lugar onde h� tantos h�spedes a cena se transfere para o apartamento da fam�lia onde se discutem os termos da partilha.Em uma das aberturas mais famosas da hist�ria da literatura Tolst�i afirma que ""todas as fam�lias felizes se parecem mas cada fam�lia infeliz � infeliz sua maneira."" Na hora da partilha por�m todas as fam�lias felizes e infelizes se parecem. E os filhos do morto ilustre debatem suas convices a respeito dos bens deixados pelo falecido.O leitor imagina que ir� se deparar apenas com os conflitos inerentes circunstncia. Mas Guilherme Figueira surpreende. Apesar de ancorada no cotidiano irrompem de sua narrativa lampejos de poesia. No vou enumerar exemplos: a descoberta fica por conta do leitor.Posso adiantar que entre suas muitas virtudes o livro escapa das tentaes do clich e do aned�tico. E assim permite que mergulhemos com ele na mat�ria-vida de que � feita a condio humana.Geraldo Carneiro FOCO EDITORA unknown
