In this hugely praised narrative, New York Times reporter Larry Rohter takes the reader on a lively trip through Brazil's history, culture, and booming economy. Going beyond the popular stereotypes of samba, supermodels, and soccer, he shows us a stunning and varied landscape--from breathtaking tropical beaches to the lush and dangerous Amazon rainforest--and how a complex and vibrant people defy definition. He charts Brazil's amazing jump from a debtor nation to one of the world's fastest growing economies, unravels the myth of Brazil's sexually charged culture, and portrays in vivid color the underbelly of impoverished favelas. With Brazil leading the charge of the Latin American decade, this critically acclaimed history is the authoritative guide to understanding its meteoric rise.

Victime de son succès, le Brésil fait l'objet de nombreux clichés, pour la plupart sympathiques ou souriants. Ce livre ne cherche ni à les corriger ni à en faire l'inventaire. Il présente une vision renouvelée de la réalité profonde du pays à partir de l'évolution de sa place dans le monde. Nation emblématique du « Nouveau Monde », mais aussi pays particulièrement sensible à la culture européenne. Terre coloniale devenue indépendante, mais sans guerre de libération. Pays tropical et métis qui a attendu le siècle dernier pour découvrir et manifester son identité profonde. À chaque période, le Brésil a fourni le reflet de la réalité du monde.
