The Posthumous Memoirs of Brás Cubas by Joaquim Maria Machado de Assis
•••
Gifted to me by my linda friend Clara, this one is a Brasileiro CLASSIQUE and taught in Brasileiro high school. It is what it says on the tin: a memoir written by a dead man. Very strange, very winding, but above all we have a LOVE TRIANGLE - and I've been obsessed with those since Twilight. Thank you Clarasita and thank you Machado de Assis! “(...) preferi dormir, que é um modo interino de morrer.”

Gabriela, Clove and Cinnamon by Jorge Amado
•••
YESSSSS!!!!! I enjoyed this lusty book so so much. Jorge Amado is a god. I actually visited the Jorge Amado museum in Salvador, Bahia in Brazil. It's on the same square (well - triangle) where Michael Jackson famously waved to a bunch of people (?????)

On Earth As It Is Beneath by Ana Paula Maia
•••
From the 2026 Booker Prize shortlist. Honestly it's a bit boring but it won't take you long to get through. Worth it if you're a Booker Prize-follower
