Publisher's Synopsis
In his debut as a novelist, the essayist, journalist, satirical scriptwriter and columnist Mauricio Wrots portrays a touching and realistic view concerning the lives of the immigrants who were "forced" to immigrate to Brazil before and during World War II. In an exotic and friendly country, the memories of pain and the pain of memories are relieved by the intense daily routine, by the hope of growth, by love and by a religious syncretism that is frequently envisioned but rarely reached by humankind. A humanist book, portraying history, culture, religion and the possibility of loving your neighbor.
