Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This is the final novel of one of the most innovative, comic Brazilian writers of this century. It takes the form of an anonymous high school science teacher's journal about an unpublished novel written by his deceased lover, a young woman named Julia Marquezim Enone. Her novel's central character, Maria da Franca, is a destitute and mentally unstable woman at odds with the Brazilian social welfare system, from which she is trying to claim benefits for time spent in a psychiatric hospital. The journal represents the science teacher's attempt to understand Julia's novel and, in the process, Julia herself and the relationship they once shared.

Her novel's central character, Maria da Franca, is a destitute and mentally unstable woman at odds with the Brazilian social welfare system, from which she is trying to claim benefits for time spent in a psychiatric hospital. The journal represents the science teacher's attempt to understand Julia's novel and, the process, Julia herself and the relationship they once shared. Rather than providing him with comfort and a better understanding of his beloved, the teacher's explorations create an ever-widening circle of questions and fears about himself, her, and finally any attempt to understand anything about anyone. But the narrator's failures become the reader's comic delights. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Courtesy of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Fletcher Fund, 1936. keywords: Latin America Brazil Literature Translated. DESCRIPTION - The first appearance in English of the critically acclaimed Brazilian writer Osman Lins, AVALOVARA is a modem epic on a grand scale, a rich and lyrical novel of quest that considers the difficulties of love and celebrates its pleasures. Abel, a Brazilian, a man of our time, seeks Paradise through his courtship of three women: Roos, sophisticated, inaccessible, and remote, whom he pursues across Europe; Cecilia, who is carnal, compassionate-and hermaphroditic; and finally, a woman known only by an ideogram, '0', whose tender and erotic alliance with Abel precipitates the apocalyptic fulfillment of his quest. An extraordinary novel, in an elegant translation by Gregory Rabassa, AVALOVARA has a prophetic, puzzle-like architecture whose unraveling has its own satisfactions beyond the wonders of the tale itself. inventory #5323 Very Good in Dustjacket. Remainder Mark.

Paperback. Condition: New. A modern epic on a grand scale, Avalovara is a rich and lyrical novel centered around Abel's courtship of three women. He pursues the sophisticated and inaccessible Roos across Europe; falls in love with Cecilia, a carnal, compassionate hermaphrodite; and achieves a tender, erotic alliance with a woman known only by an ideogram. Avalovara is an extraordinary novel, both in its depiction of modern life and in its rigorous, puzzlelike structure visually represented by a spiral and a five-word palindrome.
