Carolina Maria de Jesus

(1914-1977)

The Mother Who Wrote Her Way Out Of Poverty

Brash, funny, and difficult, this mother of three wrote her way out of extreme poverty with her uncompromising look at Brazilian society – and was alternately lauded and berated for it.

This entry is only available in the Tough Mothers book!
