For many people, it was a surprise that Machado de Assis could enchant people abroad, especially those who had to read his work at school. But not for me. This book was the first adult book I read when I was 12 years old. Of course, I didn’t understand everything, but I was fascinated, especially seeing a dead person narrating the story and I loved Machado’s irony, and that was a great influence when I started writing. And today I’m going to tell you about the life of the most famous Brazilian writer of all time: Machado de Assis.
