Real Mysteries

El protagonista de la historia es un joven audaz, hábil en el arte del engaño y la estrategia, que se encuentra en el juego de su vida. En una mesa donde se juegan altas sumas de dinero y las apuestas son más que monetarias, se despliegan las tensiones y rivalidades entre los jugadores. Maugham, con su característico ingenio y habilidad para la narrativa, construye un relato donde el suspenso y la psicología de los personajes se entrelazan magistralmente.

Em uma obra em que o ouvinte é levado constantemente a questionar o que lhe é apresentado, Delphine de Vigan constrói um clima confessional, sombrio e opressivo para expor a obsessão do mercado editorial e do cinema pelas narrativas baseadas em fatos reais. A linha tênue entre verdade e mentira oscila para enriquecer uma poderosa reflexão sobre o fazer literário e questionar as fronteiras entre aparentes dicotomias, como real e ficção, razão e loucura, público e privado. Um audiolivro brilhante, que joga com os códigos da autoficção e do thriller psicológico.

When Green Mountain College in Poultney, Vermont, announced that two oxen called Bill and Lou would be killed and turned into hamburgers despite their years of service as unofficial college and town mascots, Pattrice Jones and her colleagues at nearby VINE Sanctuary offered an alternative scenario: to allow the elderly bovines to retire to the sanctuary. What transpired after this simple offer was a catastrophe of miscommunication, misdirection, and misinterpretations, as the college dug in its heels, activists piled on, and social media erupted. Part true-crime mystery, part on-the-ground reportage, and part sociocultural critique, The Oxen at the Intersection is a brilliant unearthing of the assumptions, preconceptions, and biases that led all concerned with the lives and deaths of these two animals to fail to achieve their ends.
