Jorge Amado intends to explain a little of
brazilian culture ...with Mrs. Flower and her two husbands, the writer, born in the state of Bahia (Brazil) and a recognized author of bestsellers, tries to present the spiced and hilarious cases of the behaviour and culture of the Brazilian
people: the book is made of simple people, prostitutes, popular leaderships and smal histories of the local persons.Jorge Amado can be
questioned, as
literature analyst Walnice Nogueira Galvão has once questioned : ” the Amado´s literature is for smiling and to raise the dick "… but the
reading can be amused whith details: a full Brazilian society of defects, virtues and mainly of people who live and feel the
day-by-day of Brazil, the people and its customs or behaviors throughout the historical and social time. A good tip for reading, study and who knows, for “amusement”. In the cinema Sonia Braga and Jose Wilker had given the signs of the culture, the erotism and the drawbacks of a double marriage in home and with the “other” or to “another one”.
