Praise for author Machado de Assis "[Machado de Assis] is a great ironist, a tragic comedian. In his books, in their most comic moments, he underlines the suffering by making us laugh."--Philip Roth "Machado de Assis is a kind of miracle." --Harold Bloom "I am astonished that a writer of such greatness does not yet occupy the place he deserves." --Susan Sontag "Machado retrieves from Cervantes the origins of the novel as illusion, play, ambiguity and adventure."--K. David Jacks on, The New York Times Book Review
