Herman Melville - Ficção Curta Completa

A volume that brings together unmissable masterpieces of world literature such as "Billy Budd," "Bartleby, the Scrivener," or "Benito Cereno," along with dozens of short stories and novellas never before published in Portuguese.

"Herman Melville was an author essentially ignored in his time because his writing was not for his time. Today he is recognized as one of the most important names in Literature of all time." Alfred Kazin, in The New York Review of Books

This volume brings together for the first time in Portuguese all the short fiction of one of the most important authors in world literature: Herman Melville. While any reader will recognize the author of the novel "Moby Dick," few have not read unmissable short stories and novellas such as "Billy Budd, Sailor," "Bartleby, the Scrivener," or "Benito Cereno."

Melville's short fiction, like his writing in general, has universal appeal: its themes and characters transcend the most diverse cultures, making him one of the most remarkable writers in the English language.

This collection brings together nearly thirty texts, more than half of which are being published in Portuguese for the first time.
