"Palmares" recounts the journey of Almeyda, a Black slave girl who comes of age on Portuguese plantations and escapes to a fugitive slave settlement called Palmares. Following its destruction, Almeyda embarks on a journey across colonial Brazil to find her husband lost in battle. Her story brings to life a world impacted by greed, conquest, and colonial desire. She encounters a mad lexicographer, desperate to avoid military service; a village that praises a god living in a nearby cave; and a medicine woman who offers great magic, at a greater price." --   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Hilo Public Library Adult Fiction Jones Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kahuku P/S Library Adult Fiction Jones Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Fiction Jones Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kapaa Public Library Adult Fiction Jones Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Laupahoehoe P/S Library Adult Fiction Jones Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Lihue Public Library Adult Fiction Jones Checked out 05/15/2024 Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Fiction Jones Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Fiction Jones Checked out 05/30/2024 Add Copy to MyList Pearl City Public Library Adult Fiction Jones Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Nanakuli Public Library Adult Fiction Jones Checked In   Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 Next
