The book brings together nine comic books, created between 1991 and 2010, about the often-violent contact between indigenous peoples and whites in Brazil, from the 17th century to the present day, and rescues the survival solutions found by the original cultures. Although fictional, all the stories are based on the author's research or events he has witnessed in the daily lives of villages, such as anthropophagy, shamanism, religious rituals, healings, accusations of sorcery, possessions. Andre Toral worked with Brazilian indigenous peoples for more than 20 years as a researcher and indigenist, in addition to being a caricaturist anthropologist, and engraver and university professor. He publishes comics and graphic novels since the 1980's. "André Toral is the example of good marriage between art & academic world. On the one hand, the comic artist has the DNA of an incredible family of artists (Tarsila do Amaral among them). On the other, anthropologist, he lived with Indians and paams through the tributaries of history, with a doctorate from USP." Marcelo Rubens Paiva.
