Resumen |
In the remote Brazilian backlands was canudos -home to all the damned of the earth, to prostitutes, freaks, bandits, beggars, and the most wretched of the poor. And it was paradise, a utopian state led by an apocalyptic prophet, a place without hunger, money property, taxes, or marriage. And so in 1897, the brazilian govermment decreed it must be destroyed. |
