About this listen

As the riverboat anchored at dawn in Itamatatuba, a far-flung outpost of the Brazilian Amazon, the court clerk rose from his hammock onboard. The bailiffs sipped their coffee. The judge rubbed the sleep from her eyes. “Let’s see what’s on the docket,” said Judge Mayra Brandão, 37, reviewing the day’s cases: a tavern owner wanted for falling behind on child support, an arson threat and a rancher charged with firing his shotgun at his neighbor’s herd of water buffaloes.©2016 The New York Times News Service Division of The New York Times Company (P)2016 Audible, Inc.
