Description:
This exquisite book-length poem tells the haunting love story of a man and woman in colonial Brazil. Anninho, the beloved of Almeyda, is an escaped African slave who settled in Palmares, the longest-lasting of seven fugitive slave enclaves in South America. Eventually, tragically, the Portuguese destroyed Palmares and reenslaved its inhabitants. After the final battle, Almeyda, her breasts cut off by a Portuguese soldier, relates her tale of love and escape to her rescuer, Zibatra.
