All while a butterfly flutters in the city center, under the watchful eye of Rubem Braga. Feed These Eyes covers more than 20 years of the career of one of the most celebrated comic artists in the country, bringing together, in addition to several new stories, two of his greatest classics: Sábado dos Meus Amores (2009), which was included in the Folha de São Paulo list of the 200 books to understand Brazil, and Almas Públicas (2011). Quintanilha delves headlong into the everyday life of the working class, in 20 stories that travel from the favelas of Rio to the coast of Bahia, moving between the current and the nostalgic, between poetry and madness, between the tragic and the comic. An indispensable collection, divided into three parts, with the stories that made Aldir Blanc define Quintanilha as the Tupiniquim Rosselliniʺ, including his first book, Fealdade by Fabiano Gorila, considered one of the best narratives ever written (in any art form) about football.
