Santa Catarina Lawyer Mauro Felippe innovates by launching collections of poetry in the style of coffee table with polychromatic covers and art of content

With a category dedicated to them in various media outlets around the world, as well as in commerce sites such as Amazon, Coffee Table Books gain prominence not only in the area of decorating, elevating the status of literature to a work of art, which should being in plain sight for all and blending content with a visual.

The style is still little known in Brazil, even though early reports of books in this style have come since 1581, and at least since the 19th century Europe already uses it to identify titles that fit the description: works with many images, colored pages , short texts that complement the photos.

Entering the category, Mauro Felippe breaks the paradigms of the traditional Brazilian publishing market. Innovating in style, genre and cover, the poet interiorano of the state of Santa Catarina seeks, in the colors and verses, to provoke and incite the reader to an immersion in life, growth, feelings and sensations.

His works, defined as Coffee Table Books, are polychromatic, covering the most varied color chart. With hard cover, the poetic publications add four copies, with the fifth still to come. Poems, which not only reveal everyday situations but resilient thoughts from the core of the people, situate with the feelings of the readers and externalize them in words, phrases and rhymes richly placed by Mauro.
