Description
Published to coincide with Brazil hosting the 2014 World Cup, here is the lowdown on Brazil, its people, places and lifestyles.
A’Barrow’s book is a combination of notebook, anecdote and travelogue, written from the staunchly personal perspective of an English man who married a Brazilian woman and has spent years learning about the mysteries of Brazilian culture.
Anyone expecting a sanitised account of only those things that shine in Brazilian life will be advised to look elsewhere. This is an often hilarious ‘warts-and-all’ portrait of a country that is seen by many as the essence of Latin America. Not for the faint-hearted or the easily offended, it will give first-time visitors the essential information they need to get by in the beautiful, exotic and infuriating country that the author clearly loves with all his heart.
Stephen A’Barrow worked for many years in the British and international education sectors, travelling throughout Latin America before settling in Brazil’s mountainous Minas Gerais region. He continues to travel to pursue his business interests, as well as writing about history and culture. He lives in Swanage, Dorset.
