Publisher Notes

In this comic and absurd ecological saga, the Brazilian rain forest transforms into a stage of miracles and greed.

Media Reviews

"What happens when you mix a Japanese mystic, a Brazilian feather-healer, an American CEO, and a teeming jungle? A story that's bizarre and baroque, funny and sad. Karen Tei Yamashita's novel may say more about saving the rain forest than its non-ficiton counterparts do."
