He was born in the 1800, but he is very funny, in a sarcastic way, and his work does a lot of commentary on the elite of the time. That's him, by the way:

Try some Machado de Assis. He had a resurgency abroad last year. He is my favorite classical brasilian writer, and there are some very good american translations of his work 🥰 Memories of a Small Winner (Memórias Póstumas de Brás Cubas) is his better known work.

Ele soa como ele parece, tão estranho e fofinho kkkkkk 🥰
