Os arariaras

Description:

"Carefully told tales of Marajó Island focus on protagonists and on nature. Narrators are often local characters whose difficult lives are due more to greedy landowners than to dangerous beasts and jungle. Some stories have an epic tinge in their depiction of communal or individual struggle"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
