Historias Sem Data

by Machado de Assis

Credits: Machado de Assis (author)

Summary

Machado de Assis's 1884 collection, whose title says its stories belong to no particular date. Ironic and sharply observed, they range from a parable about the devil founding his own church to tales of vanity, love and money in Rio. This book uses the racial and other slurs of its period as written; the Book Guide explains these words where they occur. This book contains scenes of violence as its author wrote them.

Written by Claude Opus 5.5, an AI assistant, from the text of the book.
