Carvalho, Galera, os livros e o mercado

Sylvia Colombo

O escritor carioca Bernardo Carvalho lançou críticas à elite brasileira ao comentar o tamanho do mercado leitor do país, nesta noite, na Feira do Livro de Guadalajara, no México. O autor de “Mongólia” e “Nove Noites” disse que os ricos brasileiros eram ignorantes e que não podiam ser comparados com os ricos norte-americanos, que mandam seus filhos a Harvard e os estimulam a engajar-se em trabalhos beneficentes.

Carvalho opunha-se às colocações do compatriota Daniel Galera (“Mãos de Cavalo”), que avaliou o mercado brasileiro como “bom”. “Não consigo entender onde vão parar os livros. Publica-se muito no Brasil, mas quem lê é uma parte muito pequena da classe média. Os ricos não leem, os pobres não leem. Não é um país de leitores. Eu não sei pra quem se publica livros no Brasil”, disse Carvalho.

Os dois escritores participaram de uma das mesas da seção “Destinação Brasil”, dedicada à literatura brasileira. Também faziam parte do debate a carioca Tatiana Salem Levy e o paulistano Ferréz. O escritor do Capão Redondo disse que as editoras brasileiras escondem o tamanho de seus encalhes. “Você pode conhecer a sala de massagens da sua editora, nunca vai conhecer o estoque, eles não mostram.”

Mostrando pouco conhecimento da obra dos brasileiros, o moderador Benito Taibo fez apenas perguntas genéricas sobre o ofício de escritor e o mercado. Carvalho irritou-se com o nível baixo da discussão. À pergunta: “A literatura pode ser uma tábua de salvação?”, respondeu que se incomodava muito com a função edificante com a qual se concebe a literatura nos dias de hoje. “Quando comecei não era assim, a literatura era algo que incomodava, que provocava, não existia para salvar ninguém. Não sou padre, não quero ser padre, e a literatura não é uma igreja”.

Galera reclamou da imprensa cultural brasileira e da ausência de boa crítica literária nos jornais. “Existe só a notícia do lançamento de um livro, depois quem sabe uma resenha acadêmica e engessada. A boa resenha para ajudar o leitor médio, como existe na imprensa norte-americana, não existe no Brasil e eu sinto falta”, declarou o gaúcho.

Também foi abordada a dificuldade de trânsito de obras entre países latino-americanos. Os brasileiros declararam não conhecer, de um modo geral, os novos escritores mexicanos. O moderador Taibo reforçou que a culpa é de editores espanhóis que compram direitos de obras e depois decidem onde vão lançar. Carvalho contou que teve uma experiência assim com um editor espanhol, e que seu livro nunca saiu, porque ele alegara que “literatura brasileira não interessa”.

Ferréz, que está sendo publicado agora na Argentina e no México, elogiou o trabalho de editoras independentes que fazem um trabalho artesanal e específico, e se mostram interessadas pela produção contemporânea. Seu “Manual Prático do Ódio” está saindo por uma editora pequena de Oaxaca.

A propósito do tamanho da feira e da quantidade de títulos publicados para o mercado hispano-americano, Carvalho se mostrou surpreso: “Eu não conheço nada! E olha que me considero um bom leitor”.

  6. We doubt here is the location for this, yet… I have trouble with our own existing the laws of copyright, u feel that just how our own present approach to govt functions lobbying is the reason behind this. Our regulations tend not to every bit as secure everyone, that they solely safeguard typically the passions of an loaded few. Exists certainly not getting to improve the best way the drinks are? Precisely what portion with the population may be roughed up previous to genuine change might be moved to occur? All of our laws are already contorted along with sprained to profit any wealthy group. Example: I’m a new territory surveyor. My children worked to accomplish reviews for people regarding 40 years. We are always wager really competitively at times losing profits to obtain work wanting which we tends to make each of our revenue a toronto injury lawyer the actual files to ensure that we’d have the work for potential online surveys along with to be able to accomplish them easily just by upgrading what information we actually possessed with data file. Now this very same system of lawmaking which is defending typically the RIAA is definitely enabling it business and the like which have been collecting reports of our own research to be able to spread them how to individuals taking affidavits with regard to closings employing our work for their own benefit and excluding you from creating wealth for our unique sebaceous labor along with perform. Just what affects myself nearly all about this is the fact, at some point, it will have case with a review many of us have generations in the past, that had been useful for a new later shutting in opposition to each of our can as well as the surfaces may side towards us for a employment all of us failed to perhaps receive money to get. Coming from published many individuals inside government seeking assistance in some way only to obtain recurring template replies or no response in any respect. Romans had the idea considerably better 2150 in years past. We think we all are now living in a democracy, nevertheless We concern it is not obviously any good republic. Most of us vote that will put a team of Republicans or perhaps Democrats within federal government, merely to get our laws and regulations composed and reformed to learn some sort of rich fraction, simply by lobbyists funded simply by and symbolizing some sort of loaded number of. This specific same administration we all selected as to get puts a low main concern on the purposes in the vast majority, in the notion that this abundant not many are considerably more smart and/or far more worthy as opposed to the vast majority. I’m reluctant the govt happens to be many a Birth.
