About this Item
614 pp. 2nd printing of the first edition. Scholarly study of the violence of everyday life in Brazil with the text in English. This book in FINE CONDITION. Oversize and heavy it will require additional shipping charge. Quoting the publisher's note: When lives are dominated by hunger, what becomes of love? When people are assaulted by daily acts of violence and untimely death, what happens to trust? Set in the celebrated parched lands of Northeast Brazil, Death Without Weeping is a luminously written, "womanly hearted" account of the everyday experience of scarcity, sickness, and death that centers on the lives of the women and chldren of a hillside favela. These are the people who inhabit the underside of the once-optimistic Brazilian Economic Miracle and who are being left behind in the shakey transition to democracy. Size: 24 x 16 x 5 cm. 0.0.
