Description
The Passenger: Brazil A new series from Europa Editions brings together the best new writing, photography, art and reportage from around the world. This volume features contributions that explore the complexities of modern Brazil. From the country's extraordinary contributions to music, sport, and architecture in the second half of the 20th century, to its current challenges of corruption, environmental degradation, and racial discrimination, this collection offers a nuanced portrayal of a nation at a crossroads. The authors and artists represented here are determined to tell the story of Brazil's enduring vitality, despite the apparent melancholy that surrounds it. As Michel Laub notes in "In Defense Of Fragmentation," defining a country as multifaceted as Brazil is a daunting task. This collection invites readers to explore the many facets of this complex nation and its people.
