The traveling salesman Waldemar Piraí Lopes de Souza is devoted to his family duties but only comes home on Wednesdays. What mystery does he hide? All that John, a commercial pilot, can think about is his wife's afternoons of "sex", doubting her fidelity. Goodnatured, smart, critical and with the right seasoning of nonsense, All The Days Of The Week contains seven stories, one for each day of the week. The author has the magic touch of humor, characters who seem to come from somewhere in the childhood of memories; the domestic universe, the infinite possibilities that fit within such limited lives, secrets, quirks, obsessions, dangerous reflections and ambiguities are the ingredients in this precise recipe where humor is never overdone.
