The invisible life of Euridice Gusmao
Batalha, Martha, 1973-2017
Book
Euridice is young, beautiful and ambitious. She sacrifices her own aspirations to marry Antenor, spending her days ironing his shirts and removing the lumps of onion from his food. But as his professional success grows, so does Euridice's feeling of restlessness. Casting duty aside, she embarks on various secret projects, only to have each dream crushed in turn by her tradition-loving husband. Antenor eventually restores order in his household - until the day Euridice's long-lost sister Guida appears at the door with a young child and a terrible story.
