We are all going to be alright
by Sérgio Tavares
Description
This ambitious debut novel aims to portrait a generation that fought for an ideal of freedom and was not ready to live it when it was achieved, converting it into squalor, melancholy, tragedy.
Through setbacks in time and alternation of narrative voices, the story follows the tortuous and errant paths of the couple Roberto and Lúcia. Roberto is a businessman who got rich working for companies that financed the military dictatorship, and lives immersed in a sexual obsession and the lies to cover it up; Lúcia is a former MR-8 guerrilla, who took part in bank robberies and kidnappings, ended up arrested, tortured and exiled. From the late 1960s until the dawn of the new millennium, passing through decisive events such as the Brazilian redemocratization and the HIV epidemic, their trajectory stands a symbol of impossibilities of a generation.
