The bookA god who does not walk on water presents, with intelligent humor and a lot of wit, 6 mesmerizing soap operas based on the experience and culture of the northeastern people, approaching contemporary themes, such as the never-solved crimes that occur with the less favored, the omission of the public authorities and the bad planning in the verticalization of large urban centers, among others. At the same time, the author Israel Pinheiro pays homage to the seas of the Northeast and its people full of a passionate and, at times, intriguing culture.
