Read for the #FoodAndLit challenge, set in #Brazil. I've never heard about the author or the book before, but only from reading the summary I knew, that this would be a book for me. And it was!

I enjoyed the way de Assis tells his story, like he's always smiling and winking at you. A great style of humour! Also the kafkaesque vibes in this story totally got me and they really work.I should read more stories by de Assis.

While searching for recipes for #FoodandLit I decided I wanted to get to know the taste of #Brazil better, and ordered some Brazilian treats 😋 I got the soup for free from the Swiss-Brazilian online shop I came along. Can't wait to indulge 🤩😍

@Butterfinger @Texreader

Texreader Great idea! I think I‘ll do the same and look online for Brazilian foods I can order. 4y
Jari-chan @Texreader Great! I'm already curious about what you'll come up with 😊😋 4y

Great book by one of the most important Brazilian writers of all times. It was written in 1882 but it still very actual. "Machado de Assis manages to show and explore human behavior beyond appearances, exposing with great irony all man's vanity and selfishness." #Sha2017
