Again I find myself frustrated by the lack of a half-star option on Goodreads. Goodreads, if you read the reviews on your app, I beseech you, give us a half-star option.
This is the second Amado book I've read. It was quite a surprise in how different this one was to The Violent Land . It starts out a bit confusing and jumbled; but, it ends quite well. It's a bawdy, raucous tale. Amado notes toward the end that God is a Brazilian. IF man was created in the image of God the Brazilian then this book captures perfectly what His creation would be like. It's a very funny read and at less than 80 pages totally worth the short time it takes to read!
