Description:
"A welcome omnibus edition of short fiction by the writer widely considered the greatest to have come out of Brazil.... Sometimes Machado de Assis reads like a European modernist ('On that day--sometime around 2222, I imagine--the paradox will take off its wings and put on the thick coat of common truth'), at others like the contemporary of Melville and Flaubert that he was ('I succumbed to the morbid pleasure of tormenting myself, for no good reason'). In whatever regard, this collection offers plenty of evidence for why he enjoys the reputation he does, a pioneer of moods and modes that include fables, thin satires, and even gothic romances. Essential to students of Latin American and world literature."
