Produktbeschreibung
Light women like that, detached, without family ties, without mixing with the needs of the day, without work or difficulties: they were like birds with varied songs and many colours, which we are always able to find, one after the other, in the tall trees of the forest, in the lost heart of the world (Guimarães Rosa). This is how Guimarães portrays women in his work, addressing various facets of the feminine universe, in which holy women, murderers, prostitutes, maidens, virgin girls, healers, married ladies, unmarried women, women with double relationships, wise women, as well as submissive characters, a marked presence in Brazilian patriarchal society, appear. In 'Dão-Lalalão' the paradigm of this society is broken and its protagonist can be seen as a metaphor for female ascension, breaking, at times, with this model of submission.
