Pardalita
MILDRED L. BATCHELDER HONOR WINNER School Library Journal Best of the Year BCCB Best of the Year (Blue Ribbon Selection) A beautiful slice-of-life story that is This One Summer meets Ursula K. Le Guin’s Very Far Away from Anywhere Else, told in flashbacks 16-year-old Raquel lives in a small town in Portugal, the kind of place where everyone knows everyone else’s business. Her parents are divorced and she’s just been suspended for cursing out a school aide asking about her father’s new marriage. She has two best friends, Luísa and Fred, but wants something more. Then, from afar, she sees Pardalita, a senior and a gifted artist who’s moving to Lisbon to study in the fall. The two girls get to know each other while working on a play. And Raquel falls in love. Using a gorgeous blend of prose poems, illustrations, and graphic novel format, author and artist Joana Estrela captures the feeling of being a teenager in a way that feels gentle, joyful, and real. P R A I S E ★ “Intimate…Through a fledgling queer romance, the creator presents a story of change, connection, and transformation.” —Publishers Weekly (starred) ★ "The elegant simplicity of this book belies the artistic depth and emotional resonance contained within. Will leave readers in quiet, piercing satisfaction." —Booklist (starred) ★ “A leisurely, emotional stroll through a slice-of-life story that explores identity and sexuality in an authentically sweet and subtle way.” —School Library Journal (starred) ★ “The writing style is intriguing and deliberate...the slice-of-life approach working perfectly with Estrela’s creative vision in switching up formats to best convey Raquel’s intense and powerful self-discovery…this tender, warm book will likely enchant all romantic fans.” —BCCB (starred) “Effectively conveys adolescent turmoil, the heady intoxication of first love, and sweet moments of connection as young queer love blossoms. The book’s strength lies in its careful presentation of telling details. Quietly resonant and sincerely told.” —Kirkus Reviews

Publié à l’initiative conjointe de l’APEF (Association Portugaise d’Études Françaises) et du CEHUM (Centre d’Études Humanistiques de l’Université du Minho), ce Souvenir d’une certaine image se veut avant tout un hommage rendu à Maria do Rosário Girão dos Santos par la communauté académique portugaise. Si son titre renvoie à Proust, un des auteurs de prédilection de notre collègue, le livre rassemble vingt-deux contributions – essais, témoignages et créations artistiques, s’offrant en miroir d’une activité de quatre décennies, continument poursuivie, partagée, passionnée dans la recherche et l’enseignement des études françaises et comparées.
