		Plot Summary: In 1925, Gabriela becomes cook, mistress, and then wife of Nacib, a bar owner in a small Brazilian coastal town runs by the local colonels...
		from Columbia MD Gabriela, Clove and Cinnamon was the novel which marked Jorge Amado's break from pure class warfare--he received several Stalin prizes in his early career!--and embrace of the joys of Brazilian humanity.
		I won't say she is here at her sexiest--Sonia Braga is sexy any time she's on screen--but this is one of her best movies, helped much by the other players, among them, curiously, Marcello Mastrioanni as the Syrian immigrant who hires Gabriela as cook and quickly finds himself in a deeper relationship.

		The medieval romance of chivalry gave place to the pastoral novel, the first example of which is the Saudades of Bernardim Ribeiro, followed by the Diana of Jorge de Montemôr, which had a numerous progeny.
		The discourses and devotional treatises of the Oratorian Manuel Bernardes, who was a recluse, have a calm and sweetness that we miss in the writings of a man of action like Vieira and, while equally rich, are purer models of classic Portuguese prose.
		Of these the most important was the Arcadia Ulisiponense established in 1756 by the poet Cruz e Silva — "to form a school of good example in eloquence and poetry" — and it included the most considered writers of the time.

		Enter Gabriela, who smells of clove and is the colour of cinnamon.
		No matter whether the woman wanted to live with the man or to lie with him, no matter whether she was his wife, his mother, his sister, his daughter, or just his woman, she couldn’t possibly love him as much as Gabriela loved Mr.

		The first is a bit of a cult album, with its sonority strongly reminiscent of the important soap opera Gabriela, based on Jorge Amado [+]'s Gabriela, Cravo e Canela -- "Alegre menina" was its theme song.
		It also includes "Saveiros" (winner of the I FIC, 1966), "Tati, a Garota" (theme from the homonymous film by Bruno Barreto), and "Desenredo." The second album has a clearer sonority, but the songs, however beautiful, are less representative in terms of repercussion.

		In literary terms ILHÉUS, Amado's birthplace, is the best-known town in Brazil, the setting for his most famous novel, Gabriela, Cravo e Canela, translated into English as "Gabriela, Clove and Cinnamon" - by far the most renowned Brazilian novel internationally.

		There are other beaches to the north, past the port: the first is Isidro Ramos (bus from the centre or Avenida), followed by Praia do Marciano and Praia do Norte.

		Despite the distance, both countries are bound by a history of revolutions and idiosyncrasy marked by the same African throb.
		Everybody says San Salvador de Bahia, cradle of late writer Jorge Amado and his "Gabriela Cravo e Canela," is the closest to one of the burning cities of Cuba´s eastern zone.
		Thus, the flow of sympathy towards everything smelling like Brazilian is justified.
