Written by Malê award winner and Jabuti 2021 finalist Vinicius Neves Mariano, this dystopian novel addresses ageing through the concomitant history of three characters. In a society where elders don't have a place, the custom typeface takes inspiration from coffin ornaments.    

The brochure was designed following the most affordable format by publishing in Brazil. Hence, the personality of the project is in charge of the typefaces and its behind-the-scenes: Perdigueiro (custom display typeface) and Perola. 

Perola, the typeface of the internal pages, was designed by Marconi Lima. 

The book is available at editora malê.
