«Boca del Infierno» is the historical novel by Ana Miranda, published by Editorial Anagrama in hardback (342 pages, in Spanish).
Set in seventeenth-century Bahia, the novel follows the satirical poet Gregório de Matos, nicknamed «Boca del Infierno», in a Brazilian colony shaken by political conspiracies and persecutions. Between submission to the metropolis and the yearning for freedom, the plot combines the sensuality of the new continent with the rigidity of the Baroque era.
Volume 228 of the Panorama de narrativas collection. Translation by Elena Losada of the original work «Boca do Inferno» (1989), winner of the Prêmio Jabuti.
Recommended for readers of historical fiction and contemporary fiction interested in colonial Brazil and Brazilian literature.
