Описание: He had left London on a cold, gloomy day and although
he was flying to S o Paulo, his plane landed in Rio de Janeiro,
at Brazil's only international airport. He was wearing a tweed
coat and carrying his tennis racket. From the minute he stepped
into the heat of the runway and saw the Outeiro da Gl ria
church, he had a gut feeling he was going to like Brazil
and he did.
Contracted to teach English Literature at St Paul's School
in S o Paulo, he was realizing his dream of flying south
of the Equator to discover South America and
visit the Amazon rainforest.
In this touching memoir, Noemia Mariutti Maxwell
combines her husband's letters with personal reflections,
recalling her childhood in S o Paulo and early teaching
career at St Paul's, to tell the story of how she met her
husband-to-be and their happy marriage.
