"Updated translation of another Machado classic, with excellent accompanying essays, is a welcome addition to his work available in English. Rabassa provides a more informal, less strained tone than Wilson's 1954 version"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.

Work Description

Quincas Borba é um romance de Machado de Assis publicado entre os anos de 1886 e 1891, no formato de folhetim, antes de ser lançado definitivamente como livro em 1892. Como os outros livros da Trilogia Realista do Machado de Assis, Quincas Borba utiliza a ironia e paródia para criticar os costumes e filosofia do seu tempo, como o positivismo e cientificismo.
