About the book:
"This short but profoundly moving novel by the young Brazilian writer is one of the finest explorations of love you will find anywhere this year."--John Freeman, The Boston Globe
After a falling out, Cora and Julia reunite for a long-planned road trip through Brazil. As they drive from town to town, the complications of their friendship resurface. By the end of the trip, they must decide what the future holds, in a queer, coming-of-age debut novel that has been celebrated in Brazil.
