In late July, the 24th Festa Literária Internacional de Paraty showcased women’s writing through the launch of the handcrafted book *Artefata* by the São Gonçalo collective Coletiva Escritoras Vivas, and highlighted Black children’s literature via the Casa da Favela program.

A week later, the Pororoka reading group opened its first sarau in Porto Alegre, presenting works by women authors Dani Langer, Maya Falks and others, with further sessions planned in Caxias do Sul. The month concluded with writer Aline Bei’s discussion of memory and inter‑generational trauma at São Paulo’s Biblioteca Mário de Andrade.

Together, these events illustrate a growing circuit of Brazilian literary gatherings that foreground women writers across different cities and formats, from festival book launches to open‑mic sarau and public talks.
