When lives are dominated by hunger, what becomes of love? When assaulted by daily acts of violence and untimely death, what happens to trust? Set in the lands of Northeast Brazil, this is an account of the everyday experience of scarcity, sickness and death that centres on the lives of the women and children of a hillside "favela". Bringing her readers to the impoverished slopes above the modern plantation town of Bom Jesus de Mata, where she has worked on and off for 25 years, the author follows three generations of shantytown women as they struggle to survive through hard work, cunning and triage. It is a story of class relations told at the most basic level of bodies, emotions, desires and needs. Most disturbing - and controversial - is her finding that mother love, as conventionally understood, is something of a bourgeois myth, a luxury for those who can reasonably expect, as these women cannot, that their infants will live. The author also wrote "Saints, Scholars and Schizophrenics: Mental Illness in Rural Ireland".

Nancy真的是人類學女將,雖然說她去哪做研究得罪哪裏人,但不可否認她真的把那些人們不願展示的東西給展示齣來瞭。
評分感覺適閤中醫噴子們看看(雖然我也沒有任何站中醫的意思)所謂的醫學科學也是一套社會建構的話語體係,在某些社會情境下可能很有說服力,在某些社會情境下可能就會非常荒誕。比方說巴西底層的主要睏境是飢餓,但由於這套話語體係的作用,飢餓被替換成瞭精神緊張,一些老百姓情願花錢先買藥不去買吃的。
