A meia lua whooshed in the air. The strike was evaded and followed with an aú. Two young men were playing capoeira in the middle of the roda. Bimba wanted to play too. Although it is debated when and where capoeira—an art form that blends martial arts, dance, acrobatics, music, and spirituality—originated exactly, one thing is certain: in the early 20th century, Brazil was the only country in the world where capoeira was played, and it was mainly practiced by people of African descent. In 1890, two years after Brazil officially abolished slavery, the game was outlawed. Wealthy, lighter-skinned society feared and looked down on capoeira, seeing it as a game for malandros—what people in power called the poor Black communities they disdained. But in the early 1920s in the city of Salvador, a man called Bimba would advocate for capoeira, and those who practiced it, to be treated with dignity and the respect it deserved. Inspired by pre-Columbian codices, Duncan Tonatiuh tells the story of arguably the greatest capoeirista of all time, who fought to turn a misunderstood, persecuted Afro-Brazilian activity into a celebrated art practiced by millions around the world.Show book

The Shunned House by H. P. Lovecraft - A man and his uncle set out to scientifically investigate a crumbling home steeped in centuries of death and decay. But as night falls, they confront a grotesque, unseen horror feeding on the living—a parasitic evil that may be older than the house itself. The Shunned House was penned by H.P. Lovecraft in October 1924 but remained in the shadows until it was published 13 years later, just seven months after his passing! This haunting tale was published in Weird Tales magazine in October 1937. Howard Phillips Lovecraft was known for pioneering cosmic horror—a genre emphasizing the insignificance of humanity in an indifferent universe. Born in Providence, Rhode Island, Lovecraft was a sickly and reclusive child, heavily influenced by classical literature, science, and the works of Edgar Allan Poe and Lord Dunsany. Despite financial struggles and limited literary success during his lifetime, Lovecraft created the Cthulhu Mythos. His most famous works include The Call of Cthulhu, At the Mountains of Madness, and The Shadow over Innsmouth. Though he died in poverty at age 46, his work gained widespread recognition posthumously, shaping modern horror fiction and pop culture.Show book
