I’ve always wanted to be stalked. Turns out, I already am. Signing that contract was supposed to give me control, masked strangers, the illusion of danger, and a fantasy I could walk away from. Except the men who answered weren’t strangers at all. They chased me through cemeteries, cornered me in libraries, and left notes on my pillow while I slept. I thought it was a game I controlled. Then the masks came off. They intercepted my contract. Hacked the website and manipulated everything to make me theirs. One of them has been watching me for months before I ever signed anything.

In König Lear inszeniert William Shakespeare ein dramatisches Familienschicksal, das bis heute zu den eindrucksvollsten Tragödien der Weltliteratur zählt. Der greise König Lear will seine Macht abgeben – und löst damit einen zerstörerischen Sturm aus. Was als Prüfung der Tochterliebe beginnt, endet in Verrat, Wahnsinn und einem erbarmungslosen Blick auf die Tiefen der menschlichen Natur. Ein zeitloses Werk über Eitelkeit, Wahrheit, Machtmissbrauch – und den schmalen Grat zwischen Klarsicht und Wahnsinn.

Diários do infinito é a terceira obra de contos do escritor e dramaturgo Newton Moreno, um dos nomes mais respeitados na dramaturgia brasileira. Ópera e Cidades sensíveis são os primeiros. Os textos que habitam este livro-lar foram textos escritos durante a pandemia, sob o teto da ameaça da doença, em estado de quarentena, ao descobrirmos - todos - termos a mesma vizinha, a peste.
