Marcello Sordi
Marcello Sordi is a thinker. Everything else follows from that. He writes to ask questions, not to answer them. To know himself a little better. To release what builds up in a mind that cannot stop moving. His books live at the crossing of philosophy, art, and the life he has actually lived, in São Paulo, in Natal, in the United Kingdom, across languages, across losses, across the quiet and not so quiet storms that shape a person. When midlife arrived, his own and his partner's, he wrote about that too. Not as an expert. As someone in the water. A calm sea never made a skilled sailor.
Marcello Sordi é um pensador. Todo o resto é consequência disso. Escreve para fazer perguntas, não para respondê-las. Para se conhecer um pouco melhor. Para aliviar a pressão de uma mente que não consegue parar. Seus livros vivem no cruzamento entre filosofia, arte e a vida que viveu, em São Paulo, em Natal, no Reino Unido, entre línguas, entre perdas, entre as tempestades silenciosas e nem tão silenciosas que formam uma pessoa. Quando a meia-idade chegou, a sua e a da sua companheira, ele escreveu sobre isso também. Não como especialista. Como alguém dentro da água. Mar calmo não faz bom marinheiro. here.

The Geometry of Apate: When appearance became more valuable than essence.
YOU ARE BEING DECEIVED (AND IT MIGHT BE SAVING YOUR LIFE)
Without the veil of appearance, you would be an easy target. But what if lying is not a moral failure, but evolution’s most sophisticated technology?
Before the first human word, life already knew how to deceive. From the chameleon dissolving into the foliage to avoid being devoured, to...
Read moreTHE GEOMETRY OF ALETHEIA: From the first spiral To the modern lie
There is a language that precedes words. It isn’t spoken; it reveals itself. It’s in the curve of a seashell, the pattern of a leaf, the spiral of a galaxy, and the quiet space between two gestures.
This book begins from that very place: the intuition that form is not just appearance, but memory. Not merely a structure, but a trace of something...
