So bad

Extremely repetitive. Not a history of Brazil, just hours of conclusions and talking points. An Extremely long college term paper.

Book written with artificial intelligence, without a clear direction

This book on Brazilian history seems to have been written by artificial intelligence, as it mentions the same things over and over again, progressing very slowly. The repetition of topics becomes comical, saying the same things dozens of times. There seems to be no overall vision in its writing, as if it were written in paragraphs of one or two pages.
