Considered one of the great 19th-century novels in Portuguese, Posthumous Memoirs of Brás Cubas breaks with narrative conventions to offer a brilliant satire on Brazilian society, bourgeois hypocrisy, and the human condition. Narrated by a deceased man with mordacity and lucidity, this work inaugurates modern realism in Latin American literature.
