Synopse:
Machado de Assis – Retold Stories
There is a distance which separates the young reader, not from Machado de Assis, but from the Brazil in which he lived in. This book intends to break such barrier.
It is about seven stories of the machadiano repertoire redone by different authors. And after meeting a XXI century Machado de Assis, the reader will feel stimulated to go the inverse path: visit him in the XIX century.
