Publisher Description: Brazil's most renowned writer wrote a series of newspaper chronicles in 1888 and 1889. In that first year, Brazil abolished slavery. In the second, Brazil ended its monarchy and became a republic. Machado applied his astute eye and unique writing style to what he observed during those crucial years. This bilingual edition presents the original Portuguese alongside the English translation. It is the only collection of all 50 known chronicles from Machado's Bons Dias series. |
