About this book

Bossa Nova: The Story of the Brazilian Music That Seduced the World by Castro, Ruy. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781556524097.

The definitive history of bossa nova music—which has produced such enduring hits as "The Girl from Ipanema," "The Waters of March," and "Desafinado"—this book chronicles the culture of Rio during its heyday. Based on extensive interviews with Antonio Carlos Jobim, João Gilberto, and all the major musicians and their friends, this retrospective is full of passion and betrayal, love and hate, comedy and tragedy.
