The indigenous tribes of the Brazilian rainforests are on the verge of extinction. It was feared the narratives which had sustained them over centuries might die with them. The stories recounted are as old as humanity: love and hate, jealousy and revenge, life after death, totems and taboos, erotic solitude, and romantic love.

Throughout the book, there is extremely adult and potential triggering material. Most of the stories are short, so the individual plot points are generally short and less than graphic (though there is absolutely graphic material here, both in the way of sex and violence), but readers will want to beware that a number of the stories deal with cannibalism, incest, rape, violent murder, and mutilation.
Nevertheless, I'd absolutely recommend this book to anyone who's remotely interested. I'm glad to have read it, and I've got no doubt that the myths here would appeal to readers of weird fiction as well as those interested myth, anthropology, and the Amazon. ( )
