Marcelo Rubens Paiva
Marcelo Rubens Paiva is a Brazilian writer, playwright, and journalist, renowned for his impactful works that often explore themes of memory and trauma. His debut book, 'Feliz Ano Velho,' published in 1982, recounts his personal tragedy of becoming quadriplegic after a diving accident at the age of 20. Paiva's literary contributions include novels such as 'Blecaute,' 'Malu de bicicleta,' and 'Ainda Estou Aqui,' the latter reflecting on the memory of his mother, Eunice Paiva, and the political violence experienced during Brazil's military dictatorship. His work not only addresses personal loss but also serves as a crucial narrative that aids younger generations in understanding the historical context of that era.
