By Pery Ribeiro, Ana Duarte

Minhas duas estrelas é um extenso depoimento do cantor Pery Ribeiro sobre a vida e a relação turbulenta de seus pais, o genial compositor e também cantor Herivelto Martins e uma das maiores cantoras brasileiras Dalva de Oliveira, personalidades definitivas da época de ouro da música renowned brasileira que, durante décadas, imperaram nos palcos, nos discos e no rádio. Com a ajuda de sua esposa, Ana Duarte, Pery compartilha um testemunho desafiador ao revelar “detalhes quase inconfessáveis” – como repara Ruy Castro no prefácio – da vida e obra de Herivelto e Dalva.
Nascido na pobreza do cortiço em 1937 e filho mais velho do casal, Pery descreve a trajetória de suas duas estrelas, da ascensão à glória até a traumática separação do casal. Mesclando o decorrer de sua vida com a transformação da de seus pais, Pery fala sobre os seus primeiros trabalhos para ganhar a vida, o início da carreira como cantor, a sua visão crítica sobre a união de Herivelto e Lurdes, a terceira mulher de seu pai, e o alcoolismo e os casamentos desfeitos de Dalva.
