Review

The article, "O novelo de estórias de Donna Haraway," presents itself as a timely review of Donna Haraway's influential work, *Staying with the Trouble: Making Kin in the Chthulucene*, specifically referencing its 2023 Portuguese edition published by n-1 edições. This immediately signals a valuable contribution to the lusophone academic landscape, making a cornerstone text of contemporary critical theory, science and technology studies, and environmental humanities accessible and contextualized for a Portuguese-speaking audience. The decision to focus on this particular work highlights its enduring relevance in discussions surrounding multispecies ethics, ecological crises, and alternative modes of relating and knowing. The chosen title, "O novelo de estórias de Donna Haraway," is particularly evocative and promises more than a mere summary. "Novelo de estórias" (a ball of stories or tangled yarn of stories) suggests an exploration of the intricate, interwoven, and perhaps complex narrative structures that characterize Haraway's thought. It hints at an engagement with how Haraway constructs her arguments through "sci-fi fabulations," situated knowledges, and storytelling as a method for grappling with challenging planetary issues. A strong review would not only outline Haraway's central concepts—such as kinship, sympoiesis, and the Chthulucene—but also delve into how these ideas coalesce and unfold within her distinctive narrative style, offering a critical perspective on their implications and potential applications. Overall, this article holds significant promise for scholars and students interested in Haraway's work and its broader implications. If the review successfully unpacks the "novelo" of Haraway's stories, moving beyond a simple synopsis to critically engage with her complex conceptual framework and narrative strategies, it will serve as an essential resource. Such an analysis could illuminate new pathways for understanding and applying Haraway's radical propositions for living and dying well on a damaged earth. Its publication is thus anticipated as a valuable addition to the critical discourse surrounding one of the most vital thinkers of our time, particularly within the context of its Portuguese-language reception.
