In these memoirs, Braz Cubas, a wealthy nineteenth-century
Brazilian, examines (from beyond the grave) his rather
undistinguished life in 160 short chapters that are filled with
philosophical digressions and exuberant insights. A clear
forerunner of Gabriel Garcia Marquez and Jorge Luis Borges,
"Epitaph for a Small Winner," first published in 1880, is one of
the wittiest self-portraits in literary history as well as "one of
the masterpieces of Brazilian literature" (Salman Rushdie).
