Joao Guimaraes Rosa (1908-1967) - one of the most acclaimed Brazilian writers of the 20th Century - explored the twisting frontiers that lie between "white man" and Indio, human and animal-kind, city life and the far backwoods, madness and sanity. With constant, startling imaginative leaps and an emotional poetry sometimes of redemption, sometimes of irreparable exclusion, he wrote the secret inner history of modern Brazil.
