Vita: Life in a Zone of Social Abandonment – Review

“Vita: Life in a Zone of Social Abandonment” talks about the abandoned people in Vita, Brazil and how the abandonment affected their “selves”. This book focuses on Catarina, an abandoned woman in Vita, and her “dictionary” from which her “voice”, which once lost its legitimacy, could be heard once more.
