Meer over het boek

Based on the author's own experiences of life, exile, and return under the dictatorship that gripped Brazil in the 1960s and 1970s, this novel follows Lena, a journalist, as she resists political repression, and flees to Paris. Originally published in 1988, Ana Maria Machado's novel captures one of the darkest periods in recent Brazilian history.
