Lila Ellen Gray’s Fado Resounding: Affective Politics and Urban Life has the feel of a magnum opus. Ambitious in its breadth, it is clear from the get-go that this study is no small undertaking. Indeed, this is the first full-length ethnography of Portuguese fado published in English. Gray does not hedge by underpromising, and by the final afterword following six meticulously researched and theorized chapters, she has delivered a major contribution to fado scholarship.
