Cora Coralina

Summary In 1889, Anna Bretas was born in the heart of Brazil. A frail and sick girl, she was the daughter of extremely strict parents and would search for the refuge she needed to survive in the backyard of the home where they lived. It was also in the arms of an ex-slave turned nanny that she received the affection that she lacked from her parents. Anna adopted the name Cora Coralina when she began to write, but repressed by her family, she was only able to carry out her literature once she was old. Cora became a full-fledged confectioner, got married and had children. She moved to São Paulo, lived in the big city for decades, and when life permitted, she returned to Goiás to once again live in the Old House on the Bridge where she was born and finally began to write.
