Aos livreiros, com carinho

Hoje é dia do livreiro. Vocês sabem como sou chegado a uma data, efemérides etc. A velha cultura que assimilei dos almanaques.

Sinceramente é fundamental celebrar o vendedor de livros, esse herói da resistência em um país que ainda lê tão pouco.

Por um tempo, fui um deles, compondo o grande time da Livro 7, no Recife, aquela que foi considerada a maior livraria do mundo. Verdade. Não é coisa da megalomania pernambucana.

Lá também estava o maior livreiro-proprietário que conheci: Tarcísio 7, o homem que só se veste de azul, agora cuidando do projeto Livro Rápido.

Era também desta casa que partia a troça carnavalesca “Nois sofre mas nos goza”, sempre citada pelo amigo José Simão na sua coluna.

Sueli, também conhecida como Criatura, da Síntese, pertinho da Livro 7, foi outra gigante do ofício.

Tem gente que é livreiro por circunstância, um bico; tem gente que é livreiro por vocação. Conheci muitos desse naipe, como Antônio, por exemplo, da Travessa, Ipanema, Rio. Um cérebro.

E o Flamínio? Grande botafoguense e livreiro passional da gloriosa Dantes, também carioca. O cara sabe tudo do ramo.

A Cidinha, da Livraria da Vila, unidade da Vila Madalena, é outra heroína. Essa manja. Livreira de mancheia.

Os sebistas, nossa, são outros que merecem mimos e palmas. O poeta Pedramérico, do Recife, foi o maior que já vi em atuação. Gênio.

Sem esquecer o Fred do Corsarium Alfarrabista, naquela galeria da frente do espaço Unibanco da Augusta.

Mas o primeiro livreiro que me impressionou na vida foi o seu Costa. Interrompia as aulas do grupo escolar Virgílio Távora e apresentava suas obras com um entusiasmo de personagem de Charles Dickens.

Sempre que deixava a sala, algum gaiato trocava o “C” do seu nome –havia escrito na lousa- por um ingênuo “B” de bosta.

E o Marquinhos, da Mercearia São Pedro, complexo de bar, locadora e livraria, aqui em SP? Livreiro-leitor e cozinheiro d´almas.

Ao poderoso exército do Círculo do Livro, que vendia de porta em porta, devo o meu amor por literatura. Eles me trouxeram todos os geniais Vonneguts. Coisas da vida.

E você, amigo(a), tem algum livreiro predileto, nesse tempo em que não os conhecemos mais pelos seus batismos?

    Everyone loves getting free stuff. It’s a reality of life. One of the best ways to get free stuff on an everyday basis is to order freebies by mail.

    If you wish to get freebies, it is really easy to do. Simply go to a freebie site and order the samples you want. They are going to be shipped to your house.

    Nice post. I learn something more challenging on different blogs everyday. It will always be stimulating to read content from other writers and practice a little something from their store. I’d prefer to use some with the content on my blog whether you don’t mind. Natually I’ll give you a link on your web blog. Thanks for sharing.

    An interesting discussion is worth comment. I think that you should write more on this topic, it might not be a taboo subject but generally people are not enough to speak on such topics. To the next. Cheers

    I am exploring the Internet as I never have before. I have more time since I reitred. It seems like there are millions of blogs on the Internet today and the more I read the more I want to comment on them. I think that you have to put some attention on a blog to bring it above the dry and boring verbage that is common, and you have definitely accomplished that. Well you know I have my own blog and website now. It is fun, to be sure. In the text boxes I have entered my email address and my website URL. I hope you approve that I did this. It seems to be customary so I went ahead with it. TheVeryBest2You 13 9
