Sobre IBD

'Aconteceu no Brasil - Crônicas de um Pesquisador Norte - Americano no Brasil II' é a continuação de um livro editado uns anos atrás: 'Peripécias de um Pesquisador ’Gringo’ no Brasil no Anos 1960'. Continua o namoro e a odisseia do autor no Brasil de 1969 a 1985 (um terceiro volume trará tudo ao presente, isso daqui a uns anos).O volume presente tratará varias estadas no Brasil, o autor já 'Assistant Professor of Spanish and Portuguese' na Arizona State University. Os temas serão a pesquisa da literatura de cordel, congressos e momentos importantes com autores brasileiros, esforços para publicar obras no Brasil, viagens a partes novas do país e belos momentos de turismo com a esposa Keah.Entre os momentos acadêmicos altos serão 1973 e o Primeiro Congresso de Filologia Portuguesa no Rio quando o autor é apresentado ao mundo acadêmico Luso-Brasileiro e especialmente em 1981 quando faz parte da 'Comemoração de 50 Anos de Literatura de Jorge Amado' em Salvador da Bahia. Entre outros momentos de pesquisa através os anos o momento mais memorável e feliz foi em 1985 quando o autor e sua esposa Keah foram ao Brasil. A ocasião foi um prêmio para o autor combinado com uma bela viagem turística a partes diversas do pais.No espírito e estilo de 'crônicas breves' o livro não deixará de comentar o cenário político, econômico e social do país através os anos notando muitas mudanças vistas pelo autor.
