"El reverso de la piel", novela ganadora del premio Jabuti, Es la historia de Pedro, quien, despu�s de la muerte de su padre, asesinado injustamente por la polic�a, busca rescatar el pasado de la familia a trav�s de la memoria recorriendo a a la vez que reconstruye, la vida de su padre. Con una prosa sensible y a veces brutal, Ten�rio construye una narraci�n que ahonda en cuestiones como la paternidad la violencia el racismo Y el sistema educativo fallido que limita los estudiantes marginalizados y racializados de Brasil, sin embargo, "El reverso de la Piel", es tambi�n la historia sobre las relaciones entre padres e hijos y los caminos que recorremos hacia el afecto y la redenci�n. No es gratuito que Ten�nio, adem�s del autor premiado, sea tan bien recibido por el p�blico y la cr�tica. No es un turista ni hace safari social en la desgracia general del pa�s. Tampoco hace de la cr�tica a la desigualdad un truco, un atajo sentimental y barato, panfletario, para tener m�s aceptaci�n y reconocimiento. Estamos frente a un escritor que, corriendo todos los riesgos, sabe construir una buena trama y encantar al lector. Paulo Scott

The Underside of the Skin, winner of the Jabuti Prize, tells the story of Pedro, who―after the death of his father, unjustly killed by the police―tries to recover the family’s past through memory, even as he reconstructs his father’s life. With a sensitive, at times brutal prose, Ten�rio builds a narrative that delves into fatherhood, violence, racism, and a failed educational system that limits Brazil’s marginalized and racialized students. Yet The Underside of the Skin is also a story about the relationship between fathers and sons, and the paths we take toward affection and redemption. It is no coincidence that Ten�rio, beyond being an award-winning author, is so warmly received by both readers and critics. He is neither a tourist nor does he engage in social “safari” through the country’s widespread misfortune. Nor does he turn criticism of inequality into a cheap, sentimental, pamphleteering shortcut to acceptance and recognition. We are facing a writer who, taking every risk, knows how to build a strong plot and enchant the reader. ―Paulo Scott
