I read The Alchemist (O Alquimista) by Paulo Coelho and really enjoyed it. It’s a short novel that reminds me of “Le petit prince”. I’m not sure whether that would fulfill a Brazilian book as I don’t think the story is set in Brazil, but the author is Brazilian.
Hi Morgane, thank you for your suggestion! 😀
Ciao!!
Io lessi “Il racconto di Peuw – bambina cambogiana”, storia vera, ambientato negli anni di Pol Pot in Cambogia.
Molto forte.
Molto bello!

Ciao Silvia, infinite grazie per il consiglio. Temo però che sia un libro abbastanza difficile da trovare purtroppo. Non è stato riedito, a quanto pare. Ho fatto una piccola ricerca su Amazon…
Io invece suggerisco Isabel Allende. Originaria del Perù ma trasferita in Argentina. “La casa degli spiriti”. Bellissimo e strano.
Ciao Agnese, letto! E mi è anche piaciuto molto. Grazie del consiglio 🙂
