Publisher's Synopsis
Saudade Moon is a wonderful and immersive journey across Brazil. The images in this book penetrate the heart and soul, the very existence of the country. Photojournalist Paolo Marchetti captures events, landscapes, and people, and sees them in a romantic way?with "saudade": a Portuguese word referring to an emotional state related to nostalgia, melancholy, and bittersweet longing. Through the photographer, who filters reality into his own style, we see Brazil and its people in an unprecedented, remarkable, and penetrating way. The photographs, both individually and combined, create an ephemeral visual poem that agitates the senses and ignites emotion.
