Life under Brazil’s brutal “cordial racism” comes painfully
alive in this novel of fathers and sons. How do you become the
protagonist of your own life? For Pedro, it means searching for his
murdered father in the objects he left behind—an archeology of
affections. Investigating and retracing his family’s trajectory
through the streets of the city of Porto Alegre and the morass of
Brazil’s pervasive racism, violence, and bankrupt institutions,
Jeferson Tenório takes on fathers and sons, Shakespeare and
Cervantes, and the inescapable bonds and burdens of family and
history in one delicately rendered, painfully precise account of
loved ones lost and found.
