Contemporary Jewish Writing in Brazil showcases a diverse range of modern Jewish writers from one of South Americas most vibrant, multicultural communities. Brazils population is largely Catholic; its Jewish population today numbers about 120,000 mostly upwardly mobile Jews living in Rio de Janeiro, So Paulo, and Prto Alegre. Brazilian Jewish writers often use the testimonial and fantastic modes of Latin American literature to expose antiSemitism, explore the challenges and opportunities for the Jewish diaspora in South America, and reexamine historical and cultural connections to the Old World. This anthology features the work of such internationally recognized figures as Moacyr Scliar and Clarice Lispector, including two early stories by Lispector that have never before appeared in English translation. Of special note are Samuel Rawet, the father of modern Jewish writing in Brazil; Alberto Dines, a prominent public and literary figure in the 1970s and 1980s; and more recently acclaimed writers such as Cntia Moscovich.
