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?

But, come on. Theres gotta be a better way to say this, a way that doesnt make it seem like most people here is stupid!

    I do like the way you have framed this particular difficulty and it really does present me some fodder for consideration. On the other hand, from what precisely I have seen, I really hope as other responses stack on that folks continue to be on issue and don’t embark on a soap box involving the news of the day. Still, thank you for this outstanding point and although I can not agree with the idea in totality, I regard your perspective.

I’m getting sick and tired of WordPress because I’ve had issues with hackers and I’m looking at alternatives for another platform. I would be awesome if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.

    What you said made a lot of sense. But, think about this, what if you added a little content? I mean, I dont want to tell you how to run your blog, but what if you added something to maybe get peoples attention? Just like a video or a picture or two to get people excited about what youve got to say. In my opinion, it would make your blog come to life a little bit.

    My coder is trying to persuade me to move to .net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the costs. But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using WordPress on a number of websites for about a year and am nervous about switching to another platform. I have heard very good things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress content into it? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    I believe that avoiding prepared foods may be the first step for you to lose weight. They might taste excellent, but packaged foods possess very little vitamins and minerals, making you take more to have enough energy to get throughout the day. For anyone who is constantly consuming these foods, changing to whole grain products and other complex carbohydrates will help you have more power while having less. Interesting blog post.
