At a talk in the city today, Brazilian Consul General Fausto Godoy will reveal the magical symbolic world of Ningyos Japanese dolls that kids don't play with. Adults gift them for beauty, valour and good health

These days, Brazilian Consul General Fausto Godoy is a busy man. He is wrapping up diplomatic duties before he readies to bid adieu to Mumbai at the end of his two-year term.

And before he says "adeus" (Portuguese, for goodbye) he will share the story behind a set of revered Japanese dolls at a talk organised by the 47 year-old Museum Society of Bombay at the Chhatrapati Shivaji Vastu Sanghralaya.
