Rarely have Brazilian comic strips been so prolific. Following in the footsteps of pioneers such as Larte and Angeli, these young artists have engaged with literature and taken Brazilian comic strips to new heights of sophistication. Some have been awarded the most prestigious prizes in the field, both in Brazil and abroad. FLIP’s first panel will provide a timely glimpse into this booming genre, and introduce some of the new generation’s key figures.

Made-up truths
Tatiana Salem Levy
Arnaldo Bloch
Sérgio Rodrigues
moderator
Beatriz Resende |
In Sérgio Rodrigues’ Elza, a garota, the true story of a young woman killed by the Communist Party becomes the starting point for a carefully crafted experiment in fiction. Meanwhile, in Os irmãos Karamabloch, Arnaldo Bloch uses the history of his own family, founders of a media empire, to write a book that mixes elements of biography, memoir and novel. Such elements are also on display in A chave de casa, the acclaimed debut novel by Tatiana Salem Levy.

China calling
Ma Jian
Xinran
moderator
Angel Gurría-Quintana |
In Beijing Coma, Ma Jian probed a fresh wound in modern Chinese history: the Tian’anmen Square Massacre twenty years ago. Journalist Xinran has uncovered older scars: her latest book, China Witness, collects accounts by survivors of Mao Tse-Tung’s Cultural Revolution, which killed close to a million people between 1966 and 1976. Both authors expose the fault lines in a nation poised to dominate the 21st century’s world economy.

God and other delusions
Richard Dawkins in conversation with Silio Boccanera |
The fact that this year marks the two hundredth anniversary of Charles Darwin’s birth, or the 150th anniversary of the publication of his most important book, On the Origin of Species, is only a coincidence. But it helps to emphasise the presence, in Paraty, of one of Darwin’s most influential followers, author of The Selfish Gene and The God Delusion.
