About This Book

From an award-winning Brazilian author comes the beautifully told novel of a young boy, Claudio, and his friendship with a painter who teaches him to see the world through the eyes of an artist. But just as the boy is beginning to learn about art, as well as life and friendship, his friend commits suicide. Narrated from a child's point of view, this difficult subject is handled with delicacy and sensitivity. "Kudos to Nunes for her masterful work."--Publishers Weekly
