In lyrical, impassioned prose, Eliane Brum recounts her move from São Paulo to Altamira, a city along the Xingu River that has been devastated by the construction of one of the largest dams in the world. In community with the human and more-than-human world of the Amazon, Brum seeks to ‘reforest’ herself while building relationships with forest peoples who carry both the scars and the resistance of the forest in their bodies.

“Carla Mendonça’s reading of this audiobook is phenomenal. She moves through Diane Whitty’s sensitive and vivid translation with such fluency and care, with the lightest of touch and deepest intelligence.” – Leigh Wilson
