{"product_id":"resurrection-9781628973846","title":"Resurrection","description":"Machado de Assis's first novel visits themes the author developed exquisitely throughout his career including marriage, memory, and perspective. In this insightful translation by Karen Sherwood Sotelino, and with an introduction by José Luiz Passos, the novel reveals the author's early experiment in drawing out psychological and sociological issues of his times. Readers familiar with his mature works will recognize the progression from infatuation, through passion, doubt, and toxic jealousy, as experienced by protagonists Félix and Lívia in 19th century Rio de Janeiro.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eMachado De Assis, Joaquim Maria:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cb\u003eJoaquim Maria Machado de Assis\u003c\/b\u003e (1839-1908) is widely considered one of the most innovative Latin American authors and is best known for his two masterpiece novels, \u003ci\u003eMemórias Póstumas de Bras Cubas\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eDom Casmurro.\u003c\/i\u003e He was also the founding president of the Brazilian Academy of Letters (1896), a position he held throughout the rest of his life.\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eSotelino, Karen C.
