My Discovery of Brazil: 500 Years After Cabral is a first-hand
account of a farmland owner-settler in the state of Pernambuco in
northeast Brazil. With her background in anthropology, Anna Russell
has explored the national character of Brazil, borne out of her
personal experiences, in a narrative that deals with the Brazilian
People and their attitude towards work and land in the backdrop of
land-grabbing movements of the MST. Her long stay as a fazenda
owner, from 1972-2000, forms the basis of a book that reflects an
immigrant's perspectives on the Brazilian system, the vice-like
grip of the local mafia, as well as the world views, attitudes and
prejudices of a developing brazil that tries to modernize and make
rapid strides. A useful book to further one's understanding of
Brazil and its political, economic and social systems.
