Title: poignant glimpse into an unknown world
Product review: This text has a series of images and text that give the reader some insight into the lives of child prostitutes who live in Brazil. Whilst this book does communicate the tragedy and sadness that accompanies abject poverty, it is also careful to allow its participants to be read as more than mere victims of paedophilia/capitalism, but also human beings with a sense of agency, in an environment who face a myriad of potential problems e.g. violence, abuse, poverty - yet still manage to retain beauty, humanity and a sense of hope and happiness. This book is a testimony, not only to the disturbing underside of capitalism and desire, but also to the ability of the human spirit to endure such trials.
