The lively memoir of a young man who suffered the dual tragedy of his father's disappearance and apparent death at the hands of the Brazilian military followed by his own paralysis during a diving accident. This inspiring—and often humorous—account first appeared in 1982 and was an immediate bestseller in Brazil. Marcelo Rubens Paiva is a relatable and real narrator thrust into extraordinary circumstances and his is a story of unexpected self-discovery.
