Phenotypes

Paulo Scott's second novel to appear in English probes the old wounds of race in Brazil; and in particular the loss of a black identity independent from the history of slavery. Exploratory rather than didactic; a story of crime; street-life; and regret as much as a satirical novel of ideas; Phenotypes is a seething masterpiece of rage and reconciliation.

Paulo Scott was born in 1966 in Porto Alegre; in southern Brazil. At university; he was an active member of the student political movement and was also involved in Brazil's re-democratisation process. For ten years he taught law at university in Porto Alegre; he has now published five books of fiction and four of poetry; and is also a translator from English. He moved to Rio de Janeiro in 2008 to focus on writing full-time.
