reviewed In the South Seas on November 23, 2020
In the South Seas
Stevenson ficou famoso por escrever livros de aventuras como " A ilha do tesouro" e "A flecha negra",que polvilham o imaginário de muitos adolescentes. Tal como muitos escritores encantou-se pelos mares do PacÃfico.
Neste relato de viagens, o escritor escocês descreve-nos com detalhe cada ilha que visita. Através dele
conhecemos os locais, sua maioria indÃgenas, seus hábitos e tradições. Destaco a última parte, a figura do rei de Apanema intrigou-me bastante.
Um livro perfeito para esta época de pandemia. Podemos imaginar estar numa dessas ilhas paradisÃacas...
