A Machado de Assis Anthology in Translation

A Machado de Assis Anthology in Translation

Amanda Zampieri
0/5 ( ratings)
Read Download
The stories contained in this collection should give the reader who is new to Machado a glimpse of his extraordinary skill and range as an author of short stories. They include the evocative character studies of Her Arms and The Fortuneteller, the haunting terror of The Secret Cause, the political and religious satire of The Most Serene Republic and The Devil's Church, and early forays into the fantastic such as A Skeleton. These are not meant to be the best stories Machado de Assis ever wrote - though it does include indelible classics like Midnight Mass and A Famous Man - but rather an entry point for readers interested in an author Susan Sontag once called "the greatest writer ever produced in Latin America."
