Summary: "The Record of Currupira" by Robert Abernathy is a science fiction story published in the early to mid-20th century. The narrative explores the theme of humanity's connection to extraterrestrial life through ancient Martian records, unveiling a prehistoric account of Earth that challenges our understanding of history. The book is anchored in a speculative examination of language and evil, blending adventure and philosophical inquiry into the nature of humanity and its primal fears. The story follows James Dalton, a linguist fascinated by the discoveries made in Martian archaeological sites, particularly concerning a creature known as the Currupira. After hearing a terrifying recording made by Martians on Earth, which captures the grotesque voice of the Currupira, Dalton becomes intertwined in a quest both to understand this haunting entity and to rescue his colleague, Dr. Oliver Thwaite, who seeks the creature out of obsession. Their journey delves into primal fears and the ancient music that may counterbalance the dark forces of existence. The climax culminates in a confrontation with the Currupira in the Brazilian rainforest, showcasing the enduring struggle between the good and evil within both man and the supernatural.
