The Posthumous Memoirs of Brás Cubas A Novel
"Famous in his lifetime and still revered throughout Latin America, Machado de Assis has remained little known in the English-speaking world. By turns flippant and profound, The Posthumous Memoirs of Bras Cubas is the story of an unheroic man with half-hearted political ambitions, a harebrained idea for curing the world of melancholy, and a thousand quixotic theories unleashed from beyond the grave. It is a novel that has influenced generations of Latin American writers but remains refreshingly and unforgettably unlike anything written before or after it."--BOOK JACKET.
