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.
