{"product_id":"9781681373850","title":"São Bernardo","description":"By: Graciliano Ramos     \u003chr\u003e\u003cb\u003eA masterwork about backcountry life by one of Brazil's most celebrated novelists.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePaulo Honório is a sometime field hand who has kicked and clawed and schemed his way to prosperity, becoming master of the decrepit estate São Bernardo, where once upon a time he toiled. He is ruthless in his exploitation of his fellow man, but when he makes a match with a fine young woman, he is surprised to discover that this latest acquisition, as he sees it, may be somewhat harder to handle. It is in Paulo Honório’s own rough-hewn voice that the great Brazilian writer Graciliano Ramos, often compared to William Faulkner, tells this gritty and dryly funny story of triumph and comeuppance, a tour de force of the writer’s art that is beautifully captured in Padma Viswanathan’s new translation.","brand":"NYRB Classics","offers":[{"title":"US - Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":46768242622691,"sku":"DTRPRUS-9781681373850","price":102.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1778\/4925\/files\/9781681373850.jpg?v=1751562959","url":"https:\/\/buybookbook.com\/zh-mo\/products\/9781681373850","provider":"買書書 BuyBookBook","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
