Poetry. A dozen poems that recreate the sights, people, and culture of Belem, Brazil, at the mouth of the Amazon River, where mango trees line the boulevards. Poems such as "Heap of Mangos," "The Dance of Boto," "Evening Roost of Parakeets," and "Captain Brazil" are alive in both lush descriptions and captivating in narrations. Included are extensive notes. Limited to 220 copies of hand-set Garamond type letterpress printed on heavy felt text, hand-sewn and covered with Classic Columns.
