Um romance épico e revelador sobre as classes sociais do Rio do século 19 e na verdade ainda o Brasil de hoje.

É o que se espera de um bom livro naturalista. Gosto da forma como o pior do mundo e do ser humano é abordado. Não dei uma nota tão alta porque não é o que me da prazer ao ler, chega a ser chato em alguns momentos, mas reconheço seu valor, principalmente dentro do seu gênero. Se alguém leu esperando algo bonito e inspirador, procurou no lugar errado, aqui só vai achar o pior da sociedade.

Really well-written, and captivating narrative, but its verrrrrry classist, racist, sexist and homophobic at times. Interesting historically at least
