Athens, OH Ohio University Press, 1967. Hardcover First Ed, unstated. Very Near Fine in Very Good+ DJ: Book shows the slightest blanching to the pink tinted top edge, due to sunning, which has also caused very slight blanching to the black cloth along the top edge; a small patch of faint discoloration at the mid-point of the backstrip; the binding remains square and secure; text clean. DJ shows only minor indications of very light use: some very faint smudges, rubbing and barely discernible soiling; the price has been clipped; mylar-protected. Remains close to 'As New'. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. 217pp. Translated from the Portuguese by Roy Campbell. First Ed, unstated. Hardback with DJ. José Maria de Eça de Queiroz or Eça de Queirós (1845 – 1900) is generally considered to be the greatest Portuguese writer in the realist style. Zola considered him to be far greater than Flaubert. Critics rank him with Dickens, Balzac and Tolstoy. Eça never officially rejected Catholicism, and in many of his private letters he even invokes Jesus and uses expressions typical of Catholics, but was very critical of the Catholic Church of his time, and of Christianity in general as is evident in some of his novels. During his lifetime, the spelling was "Eça de Queiroz" and this is the form that appears on many editions of his works; the modern standard Portuguese spelling is "Eça de Queirós". His works have been translated into about 20 languages.
