More about the book

The book delves into the vibrant cultural production and significant social changes in Brazil during the authoritarian military regime of the 1960s and 70s. It highlights the Brazilian contracultura, a complex movement among urban, middle-class citizens influenced by global counterculture. Dunn explores how this period fostered new perspectives on race, gender, sexuality, and citizenship, demonstrating the resilience of creative expression even in oppressive political climates.
