Rio de Janeiro: Extreme City
No Customer Reviews
A book as rich and sprawling as the seductive metropolis it evokes, Rio de Janeiro builds a kaleidoscopic portrait of this city of extremes, and its history of conflict and corruption. Luiz Eduardo Soares tells the story of Rio through the everyday lives of its people: gangsters and police, activists, politicians, and struggling migrant workers, each with their own version of the city. Taking us on a journey into Rio's intricate world of favelas, beaches, and corridors of power, Soares reveals one of the most extraordinary cities in the world in all its seething, agonistic beauty.
