A Ponte Invisivel - The Invisible Bridge - Brazilian Portuguese Edition
Author: Julie Orringer, Rubens Figueiredo (Translator)

Aos 22 anos, Andras Levi recebe um convite para estudar na Ecole Speciale dArchitecture e se ve diante da repentina realizacao do sonho de deixar a Hungria para residir na charmosa Paris dos anos 1930. Tibor Levi, por sua vez, consegue ingressar na faculdade de medicina de Modena, na Italia. Sempre que as parcas economias e a rotina de estudos p... more »ermitem, os dois irmaos se reunem para trocar confidencias e aproveitar a noite parisiense. Andras, que se apaixona por uma mulher mais velha com um passado misterioso, logo se torna mais uma das preocupacoes de Tibor, que tambem se ve as voltas com um amor complicado. Nenhum deles previa, entretanto, as complicacoes que teriam inicio com a eclosao da Segunda Guerra Mundial: eles sao obrigados a retornar a Hungria, onde sao incorporados as frentes de trabalho destinadas aos judeus. Da pequenina cidade hungara de Konyar as imponentes capitais Budapeste e Paris, A ponte invisivel conta a historia de um amor posto a prova pelo infortunio, de irmaos cujo vinculo nao pode ser rompido, de uma familia destrocada em um dos momentos mais sombrios da historia e do poder da arte em tempos de guerra.

Paris, 1937. Andras Lévi, a Hungarian-Jewish architecture student, arrives from Budapest with a scholarship, a single suitcase, and a mysterious letter he has promised to deliver to C. Morgenstern on the rue de Sauvigne. As he falls into a complicated relationship with the letter's recipient, he becomes privy to a secret history that will alter the course of his own life. Meanwhile, as his elder brother takes up medical studies in Modena and their younger brother leaves school for the stage, Europe's unfolding tragedy sends each of their lives into terrifying uncertainty. At the end of Andras's second summer in Paris, all of Europe erupts in a cataclysm of war.

From the small Hungarian town of Konyar to the grand opera houses of Budapest and Paris, from the lonely chill of Andras's room on the rue des Ecoles to the deep and enduring connection he discovers on the rue de Sauvigne, from the despair of Carpathian winter to an unimaginable life in forced labor camps and beyond, The Invisible Bridge tells the story of a love tested by disaster, of brothers whose bonds cannot be broken, of a family shattered and remade in history's darkest hour, and of the dangerous power of art in a time of war.
