5.0 out of 5 stars All of Twain's humor but without the anger Feb 27 1998
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Machado de Assis was a literary master, and it comes through in this collection of tales. "The Devil's Church" has a biting wit every good as Mark Twain's, and without the tinge of religious hatred that Twain exhibited in his later writings. "The Hidden Reason" is probably the finest short story ever printed; it easily surpasses the best American short stories, and is a cut about the English and French. Read this book!
