Robb, Peter

A death in Brazil : a book of omissions / Peter Robb. - New York : H. Holt , 2004. - 329 p. : 2 maps ; 21 cm.

Combining travel, history, culture, and his own memories of twenty years of Brazilian life, the author delves into the past and present of a country that affects our imagination like few other places on earth. Much more than a journey through history, Robb renders in vivid detail the intoxicating pleasures of the food, music, and climate of the country and references the work of Brazil's greatest writers to depict a culture unlike any other.
