Diarios de la India is the record of over a year of fieldwork with a small Brazilian religious group gathered around a woman known as "the India." Her mystical practices were aimed at causing harm, and even death, to the enemies of her followers and herself, delving into the world of witchcraft in the strictest sense. Through these pages, the author explores the ritual actions and domestic life of the protagonist and her acolytes, while offering a critical reflection on the confusion, estrangement, and marginality that characterize ethnographic work.
