Lo que comienza como un frustrante retraso en el viaje pronto se convierte en una escalofriante lección de manipulación. Un extraño carismático promete salvación, pero...

Em Bailes e divertimentos suburbanos, o autor traça um paralelo entre as festas da burguesia carioca e os animados bailes dos subúrbios, destacando as diferenças sociais e culturais.

Um cinturão e outros contos de Graciliano Ramos apresenta três histórias pessoais do autor, nas quais ele revisita sua infância e os desafios enfrentados no início do século XX. Em Um cinturão, Graciliano recorda como, pela primeira vez, entrou em contato com a "justiça" por meio das surras de cinturão dadas por seus pais. Já em O menino da mata e seu cão Piloto, ele recorda a infância no sertão, quando encontra um livro de capa amarelada que o faz descobrir os mistérios da escuta.

Em Não as matem, Lima Barreto levanta a questão do feminicídio, comentando notícias do início do século XX, como o caso de um rapaz de Deodoro, subúrbio do Rio de Janeiro, que tentou matar sua ex-noiva e se suicidou em seguida, e de outro homem que, no Carnaval, atirou sobre a ex-noiva, matando-a, e depois cometeu suicídio.
