Book, João Cabral de Melo Neto: a biography[LS]

João Cabral de Melo Neto appears in full form in this impeccable biography. With lightness and rigor, Ivan Marques composes a portrait that goes beyond the austerity associated with the great poet. From aristocratic origins to the persecution of communism in the Foreign Ministry, from the first verses to consecration as the most constructive Brazilian poet, what emerges from these pages is a pulsating trajectory, linked to the decisive moments of Brazilian culture and politics.
