Its strong-willed, independent heroine Aurlia uses newly inherited wealth to "buy back" and exact revenge on the fianc who had left her for a woman with a more enticing dowry. This exciting Brazilian novel, originally published in 1875 and here translated into English for the first time, raises many questions about traditional gender relationships, the commercial nature of marriage, and the institution of the dowry.
