1 'A Death in Brazil' and Its Sources Mario Sergio Conti , 2004 single work correspondence
— Appears in: The Times Literary Supplement , 3 September no. 5292 2004;
Conti details his meeting with Peter Robb in Brazil in 2001. Conti claims to have provided Robb with valuable source information and further claims that nineteen passages in Robb's book, A Death in Brazil, 'were startlingly similar to passages in Conti's Noticias do Planalto'. Conti says 'what we are dealing with here is not simply use of information, as is normal in intellectual work. The fact is that entire sentences, lines of reasoning and images recur with only a few words changed.'
