Allow me to give you a few scenarios in which a vast knowledge
of the history and development of Brazilian poetry would benefit you: an
uptight dinner party to attend, the powerful feeling of being
absolutely certain that you know more about Brazilian poetry than the
person sitting next to you on the trolley, a cool party trick that can
dupe your friends into thinking you're a literary scholar, being able to
appreciate, perhaps even more than you already do, the growth and
development Brazilian poetry has gone through.
But we would never encourage such shallow behavior!
In all seriousness,
PHILADELPHO MENEZES' POETICS AND VISUALITY is an incredible account of Brazilian poetry and its various transformations throughout history.
Purchase now!! (let me know which scenario you most benefited from :))
