Sobre este artículo
New York. 1985. January 1985. Available Press. Paperback Edition. Very Good in Wrappers. 034531669x. Translated from the Portuguese by Margaret A. Neves. 216 pages. paperback. Cover: Donald E. Minson. keywords: Literature Translated Brazil Latin America. FROM THE PUBLISHER - A fantasy might fade in description. Thus, it doubtless is folly to discuss the story of one who describes with increasing color and motion his family's flight from Russia to settle in Brazil at the century's turn and his own birth in 1935 as a centaur who will be reared as a Jew. The half-horse, half-human child grows in favor, despite sibling rivalry from his unhooved brother. In time, through bris and bar mitzvah, he grows into adulthood, and he experiences more adventures than ordinary creatures can enjoy. If, as the Greeks maintained, the centaurs were instructors of philosophy, what might we learn from Moacyr Scliar's remarkable creation? inventory #27692 ISBN: 034531669x.
