Into the Heart: An Amazonian Love Story: One Man's Pursuit of Love And Knowledge Among the Yanomama - Softcover
This is an account of an anthropologist's foray into the heart of the Amazon jungle. When Kenneth Good began his work with the Yanomama Indians, he planned to stay with them in the jungle for 15 months. Twelve years later he was still there. The tribe described as violent, bloody and persistently aggressive, delighting in murder, living on hallucinogenic drugs and drinking the ashes of their dead, in fact showed compassion and camaraderie in their everyday life. As Good integrated himself into the tribe and learnt their language, he built up a relationship with one of their women, Yarima. This book chronicles his experiences.
