At the moment, I'm going through an Eca de Queiros phase. I've recently finished reading _The Maias_. I'm now reading _The Crime of Father Amaro_. Are there any other de Queiros fans around?

I'm looking forward to meeting others who are as enthusiastic about classic literature as I am. I trust I will find out about new, exciting writers, as well.

Be well.

Welcome, Titania. I've read only de Queiros's The Sin of Father Amaro but I really enjoyed it. I've been meaning to check out more of his stuff but it doesn't show up much in used book stores.
