By the acclaimed writer of Palmares and Corregidora. When the
Portuguese attack Palmares, Brazil's last fugitive slave enclave,
Almeyda and her husband are separated as they flee from the
destruction. Amid the flight and re-enslavement of the inhabitants,
their narrative emerges. Two powerful, epic poems give voice to the
lovers: Almeyda's passionate lament for Anninho, whom she believes
has been killed, is combined with his response as he searches for
her. Their story is one of longing - for each other, for freedom -
and for revolution. 'I want to stay here, Anninho.' 'There won't be
any way you can stay here. When they catch us, they'll take you
back.' 'The men they kill, the women they take back.'
