Description
This Brazilian novel has been widely acclaimed for its powerful portrayal of life in the sertão. Over four generations, the lives of female characters are shaped by the harsh landscape and the men who inhabit it.
The story is a groundbreaking exploration of feminism, one that reveals the ways in which women's experiences are often tied to their relationships with the land and those around them. A modernist fable of sorts, it shares similarities with Eimear McBride's A Girl Is Half-Formed Thing in its innovative style.
With its unique blend of feminist insight and literary innovation, this novel is a compelling read for anyone interested in contemporary literature from the Hispanic world.
