About this book
Brazilian Literature is by Isaac Goldberg, Ph.D., with a foreword by J. D. M. Ford. A dedication to Burton Kline says, "You were, some eight years ago, my guide into the thorny mazes of Journalism." The text says Romero devotes his third chapter to setting Buckle right, declaring that Brazil, far from suffering excessive rainfall, is subject to calamitous and destructive droughts.
The text says that, according to Romero, three chief reasons are to be adduced: natural, ethnic and moral. The text says those critics are right who find in Machado de Assis a certain homiletic preoccupation, but that he is never the preacher. The text compares one tale with a similar one called The Tree That Kills, and says that in the first a man meets his death, under peculiar circumstances, through a tree that, according to native belief, avenges the hewing down of its fellow.
