Os Maias

I've read the book so many years ago; I think I was in 10th grade, but I reckon he was one the best scribblers of Portuguese. Of that writ quality I've found no more, until today. None like him. The idea of incest was difficult to grapple with, at that time.

Impossível não adorar!! Acho que o melhor livro que li... Adoro as personagens, o enrredo e o facto de encontrar tanto retrato da atualidade numa obra do século XIX...
