From the streets of Brighton to the bars of Rio, Ed Siegle weaves the rhythms of Brazil & the troubles of his characters into an absorbing story of identity, love & loss. At once familiar & foreign, this sweet, sad & compulsively readable first novel throngs with visceral memory & unbreakable ordinary heroes.
