Esau and Jacob is the last of Machado de Assis's four great novels.
At one level it is the story of twin brothers in love with the same
woman and her inability to choose between them. At another level,
it is the story of Brazil itself, caught between the traditional
and the modern, and between the monarchical and republican ideals.
Instead of a heroic biblical fable, Machado de Assis gives us a
story of the petty squabbles, conflicting ambitions, doubts, and
insecurities that are part of the human condition.
