Coleção das obras de Nelson Rodrigues

"Vol. 9 of complete works of a great phrase-maker, one of the most celebrated Brazilian authors since 1980, includes 80 short crônicas selected by biographer Ruy Castro. Focuses on 1968, a turbulent and historically significant year. Conservative-minded Rodrigues views ongoing events and social unrest with a sometimes irritating sarcasm but characteristically admirable force of style. Among most cited are Mao Tse-Tung, Che Guevara, Dom Helder Câmara, and protest singer Geraldo Vandré, in context of noted popular-music festivals of 1968"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
