Driving home, law student Paulo passes a figure at the side of the
road. The indigenous girl stands in the heavy rain, as if waiting
for something. Paulo gives her a lift to her family's roadside
camp. With sudden shifts in the characters' lives, this novel takes
in the whole story: telling of love, loss and family, it spans the
worlds of Sao Paulo's rich kids and dispossessed Guarani Indians
along Brazil's highways. One man escapes into an immigrant
squatter's life in London, while another's performance activism
leads to unexpected fame on Youtube. Written from the gut, it is a
raw and passionate classic in the making, about our need for a
home.
