Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

You know the postcard. Here is the rest of Brazil. Most visitors can name Rio and São Paulo. Fewer know why Manaus built an opera house in the rainforest, or why Bahia and Espírito Santo still argue over who makes the real moqueca.Brazil Beyond the Postcard gives each of Brazil's 26 states and the Federal District its own illustrated chapter, written the way a local would show you around.What is inside- A chapter for every state: a drawn map with the capital, plus places most visitors have never heard of.- What each state eats: the dishes locals are proud of, with a recipe from each of the five regions.- How they talk there: slang that belongs to one place, like uai in Minas Gerais or bah in Rio Grande do Sul, each with a plain-English pronunciation guide.- Free native audio: scan the code at the start of each chapter and hear every Portuguese line spoken by a Brazilian.- Understanding that lasts: no prices or opening hours that go stale in a year, and a note on every live fact saying when it was checked.Rio and São Paulo are here too, with the same care as every other state. The postcard shows you what Brazil looks like. This book shows you who it is.
