Présentation de l'éditeur
A new unabridged edition of the classic of Brazilian literature. Dom Casmurro is a moving portrait of young love, a parable of jealousy and a witty evocation of 19th century Brazilian society, as readable today as ever.
Bentinho, the narrator, becomes convinced that his wife, Capitu, has betrayed him. Reflecting back on their childhood friendship and adolescent love through the happy years of their marriage, Bentinho draws the reader into sharing his suspicions, as well as his shock and anger.
What has Capitu done? Has she done anything at all? These are questions still debated in Brazil today thanks to Machado de Assis's masterful ploy, and one of the first truly conscious instances, of an unreliable narrator.

Biographie de l'auteur
MACHADO DE ASSIS (1838-1908), Brazil's greatest novelist, was born in a poor carioca district of Rio de Janeiro. In the course of his lifetime he never ventured more than a few miles outside his native city. He worked as a newspaper reporter before entering the civil service where he rose to become the head of a department. During his writing career he published more than two hundred short stories and nine novels, including Dom Casmurro, Esau and Jacob and The Wager. He was one of the founders, and the first president, of the Brazilian Academy of Letters.
About the Translator and Editor: John Gledson is Professor Emeritus, Department of Hispanic Studies at the University of Liverpool. He has written two books and numerous articles on Machado de Assis. Joao Adolfo Hansen is a highly-regarded Brazilian literary critic.
