In addition to the on-site occasion, the work can also be purchased on the Bestiário website and at Livraria Raízes (Av. Cristóvão Colombo, 2199). Bags, for what? is an LGBTQIA+ novel about freedom, solitude and otherness with a political background, and is set in the Capital of the Gauchos, which welcomed the author when he left the Taquari Valley in search of training in Journalism. The Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul, where the writer pursued his postgraduate studies and works professionally, is also highlighted in the work – as well as Porto Alegre itself, its streets, its shopping malls, its neighborhoods, its cinemas, its bars and its emblematic points.
The main facts of the story take place in November 2018. It all starts when Denson (a 30-year-old civil servant who works in the Metropolitan Region) discovers, by chance, that a boy he had been with a week ago, after months of talking only for the internet, is gone. Involved with a married taxi driver, Denson approaches the boy’s best friend and, while he finds himself involved in new problems, he is confronted with old issues that need to be resolved. While drinking in the bars of Porto Alegre and demonstrating all their pessimism and disbelief with the future, Denson and his friends also rethink their ways of loving, desiring and building relationships.
The work is structured in eight chapters, each one dedicated to one day of the last week of the Book Fair in Porto Alegre, right after the result of the second round of the 2018 presidential elections, which directly interferes with the emotions of the characters in the plot.
