About the author

Henrique de Souza Filho, commonly known as Henfil, was a Brazilian cartoonist, caricaturist, journalist and writer, born in Ribeirão das Neves, Minas Gerais. He was a contributor to the satirical newspaper “O Pasquim”, which began publication in response to press censorship in Brazil following the military crackdown of December, 1968. In 1970 he published the comic book “Os Fradinhos” (The Friars), starring his most acclaimed characters. Henfil also worked in theater, film, television and literature, but political activism was his hallmark, creating fictional characters that made acerbic criticisms of the Brazilian political institutions of the time. A haemophiliac, Henfil contracted AIDS in a blood transfusion and died as a result of the disease in Rio de Janeiro.

[Felipe Barreto · Rating 5 out of 5]

Que delícia ler a obra de Henfil depois de tantos anos. Seus traços dinâmicos, o jeito que Henfil passa sentimentos aos seus personagens apenas com um olhar específico é uma coisa de mestre. Uma das obras da minha vida, me parte o coração saber que nunca terei a oportunidade de sequer pedir um autografo a um dos "heróis" da minha infância. Henfil é eterno.

Apesar de ser vascaíno, é difícil não render aos folclóricos personagens flamenguistas de Henfil. É demais!!!!
