Reviews
Shaw's forthright discussion of race and racial prejudice within [Latin America] and Europe is refreshingly honest and provides welcome examples of Afro-Brazilians who manipulated oppressive systems to claim a place within Brazilian society., Brazil's racial identity and comprehensive sense of self cannot be fully grasped without the performative transnational vantage that this book profitably adopts...Overall, the volume is attractive, the writing is consistently smooth, and the illustrations are splendid. The reading is rewarding and makes one want to know more and, tellingly, somehow to access these charged historical performances., Exciting [and] readable...Shaw's research presents Rio as the culturally fluid, cosmopolitan port city it has been since the Portuguese court first arrived and as the disturbing, sad, joyous, riotous, and frenetically carnivaleque mestiço face of Brazil in good times and bad.

Shipping was fast but no tracking and worst packaging ever.. like the box came banged up... send a question to seller never had a reply 😅.... Good product overall, excellent price, fast shipping, wrapped only on 4 sides out of 6, no tracking and never reply... 4★ product / 2★ seller ✌️

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
