- Summary
- "Nelson Falcao Rodrigues (August 23, 1912--December 21, 1980) was a Brazilian playwright, journalist and novelist. In 1943, he helped usher in a new era in Brazilian theatre with his play 'Vestido de Noiva' (The Wedding Dress), considered revolutionary for the complex exploration of its characters' psychology and its use of colloquial dialog. He went on to write many other seminal plays and today is widely regarded as Brazil's greatest playwright"--Provided by publisher.
