About the Book

Obra vencedora do Prêmio Clube de Autores de Literatura Contemporânea (2014)."Há um oceano que separa o presente e o passado da velha Chica. Muito embora tenha vivido exatas nove décadas, a senhora de olhos azuis ainda se recorda, mesmo que vagamente, do semblante da sua misteriosa mãe. No calor escaldante do sertão da Bahia, ninguém nunca soube muito bem de onde veio aquela moça de expressão triste. Só desconfiavam que a estrangeira teria migrado de longe - lá da Itália, Alemanha ou França - mas, ninguém nunca chegou a entender bem o que ela dizia para saber ao certo. O passado sempre foi uma incógnita para Chica e foram tantas as noites perdidas refletindo sobre as suas desilusões, perdas, lutas e conquistas. O amor pela leitura ajudava a atenuar a crueldade impelida pela insônia. Já Zé Maurício, neto de Chica - também tratado pela avó por Neno -, é um homem que foge do passado. O jovem, que em certa altura experimentou o gosto ambíguo da riqueza, persevera em uma incansável busca por um futuro melhor - pela tão sonhada liberdade. Após anos de ausência, o seu caminho cruza novamente o da sua querida avó, justamente em um momento de tamanha vulnerabilidade para ambos. Por ironia do destino, Zé Maurício faz Chica deparar de forma avassaladora com o longínquo passado da sua própria família - desde os tempos em que ela fora adotada por abastados latifundiários, após a trágica morte da sua mãe. Lágrimas rolam dos olhos azuis da velha Chica ao lembrar do seu início servil, tão cheio de dúvidas e decepções.Ventos para Areia Branca é uma saga que trata de laços de família ainda atados nos árduos tempos das grandes migrações européias do fim do Século XIX. Através das narrativas de avó e neto, duas gerações se encontram e tentam desvendar os mistérios das suas origens - europeias e indígenas - tão sofridas e comuns à grande maioria da população brasileira. Ao fim desta leitura, ficará claro que o oceano que nos separa não é tão extenso assim."Leia os primeiros capítulos aqui: http: //www.wattpad.com/story/15396119-ventos-para-areia-branca-cap%C3%ADtulos
