Grande pesquisa sobre a história antiga e recente de Cabo Verde, mas deixa a desejar sobre o que se pretendeu, que era fazer uma biografia da Cesária Évora. Cesária, no livro, parece ser apenas um detalhe. E o mais engraçado é que a autora põe seu nome na capa primeiro e em maior destaque do que o da grande cantora. Ainda assim recomendo a sua leitura, é muito bem escrito.

The book is mainly about history, geography and economy of Cape Verde rather than about Cesaria, and left me wondering if using Cesaria's name in the title was a PR move. At times, the large amount of names and dates makes it sound like a travel guide or a Wikipedia note.

The book may be great if you're loking for a popular science book about Cape Verde, though.
