Greta The review is great and so is the introduction! I really like that you compared those books in relation to their country

Henry Avila I appreciate your words, my friend, a novel which should be better known.

Manuel Antão Wonderful review Henry. Reading this I'd be inclined to think you're Portuguese...maybe you're and I don't know. I studied this in highschool and I was only one of the happy few who liked it. Reading your review I felt the urge to re-read it.

Henry Avila Born in Portugal live in America, Henrique my real name. Thanks for your support.

Elisa Santos The introduction was spot on. This is what Portugal was and sadly still is: backward, uneducated, prone to silly vanities.

Henry Avila Yes with a great history to remind them of their possibilities.

Blaine DeSantis Sounds like a wonderful book. It is sitting on a shelf in my library waiting for me to get around to reading it. Thanks for the review,

Henry Avila It is a terrific novel Blaine, a peek into another world and culture that has disappeared forever.

Blaine DeSantis I cannot believe that I bought this book back in 2011. Too many books yet to read
