From a street performer who eats glass, Amazonian midwives, young men impacted by the drugs trade, and an elderly factory poisoned by the products he spent his life making; Eliane Brum’s perceptive writing carries you into Brazil’s marginalised communities with a deft touch.  The Collector of Leftover Souls: Dispatches from Brazil is a selection of Eliane’s work from two books, with short pieces and longer investigative stories. Vibrant, exhilarating, confronting, and complicated, you’ll find this collection delving into the spectrum of humanity difficult to put down.
