THE MANDARIN AND OTHER STORIES
by
E~a
de Queiroz,
translated from the Portuguese by Richard Franko Goldman
$4.00
"The Mandarin
is a small narrative masterpiece of which
the translator has caught every limpid line and contour."
Erik
Wensberg, The New York Times
"[E~a]
has been compared to Balzac and Stendhal, to whose
scope and verve he has added the peculiarly Portuguese brand of
ironic melancholy and a bright resigned wit.... [these stories]
are very good indeed."
4lan Pryce-Jones, New York Herald
Tribune.
"The title story . . . is one of the great philosophic tales,
worthy of Voltaire. . . . The narration [of the other stories] is
masterly, and the human types described are quite convincing."
Emile Capouya, Saturday Review
