LeiturArte Presents a Young Writer to the Community of the Itapagipe Peninsula
Publicity agent, writer and poetess Majorie dos Anjos has left cyberspace to reach the real world. Her book “When the Last Dry Leaf Falls” was available only on the site of the Author’s Club, but now you can find it also on the shelves of the Leonardo da Vinci International Library.
Last Saturday, May 9th, the ICBIE, together with the Gregorio de Mattos Foundation, as part of the LeiturArte Project, transformed a rainy night in Ribeira into a solemn and warm celebration, with the presentation of the book by the young publicity agent Marjorie dos Anjos.
Entitled “When the Last Dry Leaf Falls,” the plot of the book aroused curiosity and questions, as well as inspiring a theatrical production and the choice of the repertoire of the event. The Little Theater Company studied a chapter of the book and they put it on stage, succeeding in touching even the author. The musicians Adriele Alexandrino, Gessica Lima, Juliana Ribeiro, Antonnio Paiva Junior, Felipe Pires and Rafael Carneiro caressed the evening with music inspired by the theme of rain.
The writer Marjorie dos Anjos basked in the attention she received from friends and admirers that she met at the event. Overcome with e motion, she received flowers from her cycling group, the Soterurbanos. Besides them, the film-maker Pola Ribeiro, la educator Heloisa Magahães, the artist Zaca Oliveira and the circus actors Anapaula Barreio and Jhonatan, directed by Peru, left their comments and best wishes for success in a short film, which was projected during the evening.
To close the event, a cocktail was served while Marjorie signed copies of her book and after that, there came an informal chat and music.
