The ordinary, everyday, and trivial make up the raw materials for the literary genre of the chronicle, which Machado de Assis' style turns into a perfect chat. Like a well-informed neighbor, the Brazilian writer offers us a portrayal of his native country towards the end of the nineteenth century, highlighting the tensions between the ancient and the modern, between tradition and progress. "Lo comun, cotidiano y trivial constituye la materia prima del genero literario de la cronica, la cual a traves de la pluma de Machado de Assis se presenta simplemente como una charla perfecta. Como un vecino bien enterado del acontecer diario, el brasileiro nos ofrece un nitido retrato de su pais natal de finales del siglo XIX, y refleja la marcada tension entre lo antiguo y lo moderno, entre la tradicion y el progreso."
