Kaučuk: Zeleni demon

Ferreira de Castro

A Selva is a classic of Portuguese literature, one of those works that, as they say, enter the canon of Portuguese literature.

Considered one of the most successful and monumental books in modern Portuguese literature, Rubber, a remarkable epic about the life of rubber tappers in the Amazon jungle during the declining years of the rubber cycle, has been read and widely praised by names like Jaime Brasil (a unique book in literature from around the world) to Agustina Bessa -Luís (a masterpiece) and Jorge Amado (a classic of our time), but equally unnoticed by the great figures of world literature, such as Albert Camus (a winding and suggestive style, like a lush vegetation of strange and wonderful expressions. An unforgettable book), Blaise Cendrars ( brilliant and ardent stylist), his French translator, or Stefan Zweig (an admirable novel).
