Jorge Amado - the unsurpassed singer of sunny Brazil, once a scandalous author, and now a recognized classic, whose books have been translated into fifty languages, published in dozens of countries and became the basis for many films and TV series. He was born in Bahia, a Brazilian state on the Atlantic coast, and there is the action of the most famous of his novels - including the last novel of the "Bahian cycle" "Generals of the sand pits. In Brazil, "Generals", for which the writer traveled to both Americas, is one of his most beloved books, in the rest of the world - one of the most famous (in 1971, Hall Bartlett screened it, and the film became a cult). The gang of "sandpit generals" - street kids sleeping on the sandy beaches of Bahia - commits daring robberies, hiding from the police, suffering and fun, crying and laughing, praying, dreaming and sacredly honoring the unwritten laws of friendship. In Jorge Amado's Brazil, every conceivable color, every way of life and every possible fate are mixed; there is music around the clock, poverty is constantly at war with wealth, piety coexists under the same roof with the worst vices, tears are interspersed with laughter, and brutal reality easily neighbors with everyday magic.
