Quarta Página is a non-profit channel for human book narration. BOOK DESCRIPTION In Olhos d'água, Conceição Evaristo focuses her interest on the Afro-Brazilian population, addressing, without mincing words, the poverty and urban violence that affect them. Without sentimentality, but always incorporating poetic texture into fiction, her stories present a significant gallery of women, and mothers, many mothers, are present. And also daughters, grandmothers, lovers, men and women – all evoked in their social, sexual and existential bonds and dilemmas, in a plurality and vulnerability that constitute the human condition. Without any idealizations, the harsh conditions faced by the Afro-Brazilian community are recreated here with firmness and talent.
