Contemporary World Fiction: Brazil - Page 2

If the covers and titles are anything to go by, these books should make a stimulating read. These are works of Brazilian authors that are discussed in "The Complete Review Guide to Contemporary World Fiction" (M.A. Orthofer, 2016). Orthofer writes favourably of all the authors except Paulo Coelho. To quote: "The pop spirituality of his crudely inspirational tales of journeys of personal growth is general enough that books like his "fable about following your dream," The Alchemist, have met with incredible success throughout the world".
