{"product_id":"iracema","title":"Iracema","description":"\u003cp\u003eJose de Alencar's prose-poem Iracema, first published in 1865, is a classic of Brazilian literature--perhaps the most widely-known piece of fiction within Brazil, and the most widely-read of Alencar;s many works. Set in the sixteenth century, it is an extremely romantic portrayal of a doomed live between a Portuguese soldier and an Indian maiden. Iracema reflects the gingerly way that mid-nineteenth century Brazil dealt with race mixture and multicultural experience. Precisely because of its nineteenth-century romanticism, Iracema strongly contributed to a Brazilian sense of nationhood--contemporary Brazilian writers and literary critics still cite it as a foundation for their own work.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"José de Alencar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43561131376701,"sku":"9780195115482","price":55.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/7689\/2989\/files\/9780195115482.jpg?v=1788425747","url":"https:\/\/www.palmleaf.com.au\/products\/iracema","provider":"Palmleaf","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
