Synopsis "Arara Vermelha (in Spanish)"

Las novelas de José Mauro de Vasconcelos son historias de hombres; por lo tanto, historias de sus conflictos y sus pasiones, sus virtudes y sus vicios. El autor ha sabido calar hondo en el alma de sus personajes, pues es un extraordinario buceador de la vida, y los ha convertido en representaciones de los seres reales que ha conocido.Arará Vermelha cuenta las vicisitudes de un grupo humano acuciado por la ambición. Porque la codicia es el gran personaje de la obra. La codicia moviendo hombres, modificando destinos, marcando condiciones y, a la postre, convertida en árbitro de todas esas vidas humanas. El centro del relato: un diamante fabuloso. Los escenarios: la selva, los poblados indígenas, el río...Arará Vermelha participa del interés de las grandes novelas del hombre y de la tensión aguda y dramática de una historia policial.

He is the most read Brazilian writer worldwide. He was born on February 26, 1920, in Bangu, Rio de Janeiro, and, due to his family's poverty, moved to Natal. His life was as adventurous as that of a literary character. He was a boxing coach, fisherman, and bartender, among many other occupations. His novels reflect his vast life experience, his sensitivity towards the less fortunate, and a deep love and respect for nature. With My Sweet Orange Tree (1968), he achieved international recognition, as it was and continues to be one of the most widespread works of Brazilian literature worldwide. The story of this book continues in Let's Warm Up the Sun (1974), about his move to Natal. Vasconcelos won the Jabuti Award, the highest literary honor in Brazil, and was also a screenwriter, theater and television actor, journalist, and visual artist. He died on July 24, 1984, in São Paulo.
