Um largo, sete memórias

Adolfo Boos Júnior

"Fiction and history (bibliography included) converge and run parallel through a narrative comprised of memories of seven characters, all of whom lived in Santa Catarina state at the time of slavery. The rigors of the slaves' conditions and the stern grip of their owners contrasts with the generosity of a humble shoemaker, an abolitionist ahead of his time"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
