Dance of the Dolphin: Transformation and Disenchantment in the Amazonian Imagination
Candace Slater
In Amazonian folktales, dolphins take human form, seduce men and women, and carry them away to a city beneath the river. This book examines these stories, both as folk narratives and as representations of culture and conflict in the Amazon.
