About Author:

Jos Mauro was born in Rio de Janeiro on February 26 of 1920. His family was very poor, and
when he was still very young, he migrated to Natal where relatives took care of him. Entering the
Medical Faculty, Jos abandoned the course of studies in his second year and returned to Rio de
Janeiro.[citation needed] There he worked as a boxing instructor and even as a painter's model.
Jos iniciated his literature with the novel Banana Brava. His greatest success was his novel Meu
P de Laranja Lima, that tells about his own personal experiences and the shocks he suffered in
his childhood with the abrupt changes of life.
Jos was part Indian and part Portuguese. He passed his childhood in Natal. When he was 9
years old, he learned to swim, and with pleasure he still remembers the days when he threw
himself to the waters of the Potengi River to train for swimming competitions. Jos frequently went
to the sea. He won many swimming competitions and, like every boy, liked to play soccer and to
climb on trees. Jos's first job, from 16 yars old to 17 years old, was a sparring partner of
featherweight boxers. Next, he worked in a farm in Mazomba, his job was to carry bananas. After
that, he became a fisherman and lived on the coastline at Rio de Janeiro. Later he moved to
Recife, where he became an elementary teacher and teacher at a fishermen's center.
Because of his prodigious capacity of telling stories, possessing a fabulous memory, brilliant
imagination, and a large human experience, Jos felt he was obligated to become an author, and
started to write novels when he was 22 years old.
The author had his original methods of writing. In the beginning, he would choose the scenarios
where the characters would move. Then he would transfer to this place and do rigorous studies
there. To write the novel Arara Vermelha, Jos traveled 450 leagues in the brute wilderness. Next,
he builds all the novel, determining even the sentences of the dialogues. He had a memory that,
for a long time, allowed him to remember every little detail of his studied scenario. "When the story
is entirely made in imagination", reveals the author, "is when I begin to write. I only work I have the
impression that the novel is exiting from all the pores of the body."
Jos relates that after finishing writing the first chapter, he passes to the conclusion of the novel,
without even elaborating the plot. "That, he explains "because all the chapters are already
produced mentally. It is not really important writing a sequence, like alterating the order. In the end
everything goes well". Jos was a cinemactor and worked in films such as Carteira Modelo 19,
Fronteiras do Inferno, Floradas na Serra, Canto do Mar (of which he wrote the screenplay), Na
Garganta do Diabo, and A Ilha. He won many prizes, such as the Saci prize to best supporting
actor, the Saci prize to the best actor of the year, and the Governo do Estado prize to best actor of
the year. His novels Arara Vermelha and Vazante were filmed.
