Acknowledgments
Anyone trying to become a writer needs an attentive reader. Since I decided to dare myself to write in English, numerous friends have been supporting me. In this particular piece, Antti Rajala, MCA’s book review editor, worked diligently to create a zone of proximal development to my anglophone writer self. Antti Rajala, not even in Portuguese, my maternal language, I have enough words to explain my gratitude for you.
