I know Fábio Fernandes and Jacques Barcia are starting to write in English and have some stories available online (and in anthologies such as <i>Shine</i> and <i>Steampunk II: Steampunk Reloaded</i>), but outside of that, I don't think the other Brazilian writers I've read have really had anything translated into English, minus perhaps Braulio Tavares in <i>Cosmos Latinos</i>, which is an anthology of Latin American fictions published a few years ago in English translation.Larry Nolenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16001420558511460998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8068873.post-33643314337715326742010-10-09T14:54:07.831-05:002010-10-09T14:54:07.831-05:00hey Larry.

If I were curious about Brazilian genre fiction, but embarrassingly monolingual, what would you recommend to me? what if anything is available in a good English translation?Felix Gilmannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8068873.post-22230809563604320012010-10-08T18:17:20.194-05:002010-10-08T18:17:20.194-05:00Ana Cristina,

But I'll see if I can find an easier-going reading squirrel, just in case ;)<br /><br />James,<br /><br />It'll be a weekend read. I am reading maybe 30-60 minutes a day these past few weeks, with 3-5 hours on Saturday mornings/early afternoons. Now I just remembered that I'm a week late in posting my September 2010 reads, so I guess I should do that sometime soon.Larry Nolenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16001420558511460998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8068873.post-79414054346318423612010-10-07T20:11:03.792-05:002010-10-07T20:11:03.792-05:00Yeah, I saw the Sedaris in the store the other day...Yeah, I saw the Sedaris in the store the other day and immediately wondered when you would be reviewing it (hence my tweet).
