Santa Cruz and the Livraria Duas Cidades
Livraria Duas Cidades was the bookstore and publisher for São Paulo's intelligentsia. Founded in the middle of the last century with the encouragement of the Dominican Order, and under the leadership of a Dominican priest who left religious life in the 1970s to devote himself only to the world of books, Livraria Duas Cidades took root in the urban and socio-cultural space of the city of São Paulo between 1954 and 2006.
