Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"Winner of the Brazilian Academy of Letters prize for best novel and the Pen Club of Brazil for best book in 1993, this work gives 'snapshot' style background stories of several people who end up in the same funeral parlor one night in Sao Paolo . . . The pace is fast, and van Steen shows how many current social problems in Brazil affect her characters' lives. For all Latin American collections." Library Journal"

"A prizewinning Brazilian novel . . . It's just the sort of book you hope will become a movie." Kirkus Reviews"
