[Opinions] Re: Thank you...
The book is a well known(locally) Brazilian classic, and there’re many theories and discussions about it. I just looked up in Portuguese, and the anagram of America is an interpretation. We don’t know if it was intentional, but it would fit the story of a European colonist and a Native American.The “honey lips” meaning is likely derived from the author’s poetic license. A tupinologist says that it’s incorrect. It likely means “honey exit”, “bee exit” and/or “swarm of bees”.Keep in mind that I just did a quick search. I can’t vouch for anything here.
