I'll Sell You a Dog

by Juan Pablo Villalobos ...

Phenotypes

by Paulo Scott ...

Translated by Daniel Hahn ...

Paulo Scott's second novel to appear in English probes the old wounds of race in Brazil; and in particular the loss of a black identity independent from the history of slavery. Exploratory rather than didactic; a story of crime; street-life; and regret as much as a satirical novel of ideas; Phenotypes is a seething masterpiece of rage and reconciliation. ... Read more
