Book recommendations
“— Why count the days, when even one day is enough for a man to know all happiness.”
Fyodor Dostoevsky, in The Brothers Karamazov
This list is my attempt to recommend books beyond those that are already widely recommended, such as The Brothers Karamazov, Don Quijote, and 1984, and I hope you may find some wisdom in what they have to tell.
Brazilian books I recommend
- O Encontro Marcado (A Time to Meet), by Fernando Sabino
- Sagarana, by João Guimarães Rosa
- Quincas Borba (Philosopher or Dog?), by Machado de Assis
- Vidas secas (Barren Lives), by Graciliano Ramos
