Editor's Note:
Uma cidade em convulsão na imprensa, na literatura, na música popular, na ópera, no teatro, nas artes plásticas, no cinema, na caricatura, na praia, na ciência, na arquitetura, no futebol, na luta das mulheres, nos costumes, no sexo e nas drogas. Se o Brasil dos anos 20 ainda engatinhava rumo à modernização, o Rio de Janeiro tinha vida própria e já era sinônimo de arrojo e vanguarda.É essa capital fervilhante o cenário e a protagonista do novo livro de Ruy Castro.Em Metrópole à beira-mar, um de nossos maiores biógrafos faz uma saborosa reconstituição histórica da era de ouro carioca, entrelaçando eventos políticos e culturais à trajetória dos personagens – os lembrados e os esquecidos –, que fizeram e mudaram a história.Quem fez o Rio dos anos 20: Adalgisa Nery - Adhemar Gonzaga - Agrippino Grieco - Alvaro Moreyra - Aracy Cortes - Benjamin Costallat - Bertha Lutz - Bidu Sayão - Carlos Chagas - Carmen Miranda - Cecilia Meirelles - Di Cavalcanti - Elsie Houston - Eugenia Alvaro Moreyra - Francisco Alves - Gilka Machado - Ismael Nery - Ismael Silva - J. Carlos - Jayme Ovalle - João do Rio - Laurinda Santos Lôbo - Lima Barreto - Manuel Bandeira - Mario Reis - Murilo Mendes - Orestes Barbosa - Oswaldo Goeldi - Patrocinio Filho - Pixinguinha - Procopio Ferreira - Ronald de Carvalho - Roquette-Pinto - Sinhô - Théo-Filho - Vera Janacopoulous - Villa-Lobos
