Long listed for the Man Booker International Prize 'A savagely short
novel of immeasurable ambition and violent beauty. This is the language

'Yes, bastard, you're the one I love' A pair of lovers - a young female
journalist and an older man who owns an isolated farm in the Brazilian

sexual adventure turns into a savage power game. This intense, erotic
cult novel by one of Brazil's most infamous modernist writers explores
alienation, the desire to dominate and the wish to be dominated. A new
translation by Stefan Tobler
