Writings: Papers, Reviews, Articles, Short-Shorts, Thoughts is a collection of texts about contemporary trends in literature and film that the author has written over the years. If I had to sum up the book, I would say it is about art.The journey starts with an analysis of the monster Leviathan and its representation in the Bible and in the secular world. Two movie reviews are then presented: Eyes Wide Open and De Lama Lamina. There is an essay on Hemingways Hills Like White Elephants; a paper on Autopoiesis and Queer Theory; and three more movie reviews of Little Miss Sunshine, Far From Heaven, and The Scarlet Letter by Wim Wenders. To close the book, the author includes a paper on The Silence of the Lambs by Thomas Harris; an answer to Joyce Carol Oates The Art of Suicide; an article on the short-short story; one more movie review of Silver Linings Playbook; a review on Elton Johns concert in Belo Horizonte; and two short-short stories.
