As a result of extensive historiographical research, the book offers a (re) reading about the Vaccine Uprising in Rio de Janeiro, still with its own characteristics of the republican beginnings. The author works with the various elements that have come together to compose this picture of our history. The innovative form of writing - intertwined narratives -, illustrated by the plastic representations of the time, confirms the refusal to give finished answers to questions, unveiling unexpected facets that fortify any conclusive explanation that one wants to arrive at. This set results in a vivid description of the movement of the rebels through the streets of Rio in those days. Book that, in addition to opening new perspectives for studies on urban issues, has the merit of updating the dialogue on the subject.
