The story of Olga Benário synthetizes
the conflict between nature and the implacable discipline
imposed to the communist militants in the first half of the
20th century and the emergence of their individuality , of
her fellings as a woman, of love and maternity.
In Brazil OLGA is considered one of the greatest best-sellers
of the editorial market. The book was translated into many
languages, amongst them english, french and german.

| "More than the warm portrayal
of a woman, Olga reveals us the courage, sectarianism,
solidarity and the optimism that led communist militants
to sacrifice in the years that followed the Second World
War." |
| Le Monde, France |
| |
| "A fascinating love story." |
| Playboy |
| |
| "Fernando Morais recreated
the love, courage, integrity and devotion of a woman." |
| Booklist, Chicago |
| |
| "The story offered Fernando
Morais settings and events that seem to have come straight
out of a Hollywood movie..." |
| Los Angeles Times |
| |
| "Olga's life shines upon
contemporary history's dark underworld and was narrated
with the impact of a suspense novel." |
| Standard, London |
| |
| "This documentary novel
is the journalistic work of a master grabbing the reader
from the first to the last word." |
