Resumen
The City and the Mountains (Portuguese: A Cidade e as Serras) is a satirical novel comparing the emptiness of upper-class life in Paris with the pleasures found in rural Portugal. It was written in 1895 by José Maria de Eça de Queirós (1845–1900), also known as Eça de Queiroz, when he was living in Paris. The novel was published posthumously in Portuguese in 1901 with a final edit and an ending contributed by his friend, Ramalho Ortigão. The first English version, translated by Roy Campbell, was published by the Ohio University Press in 1967.

Um outro clássico que recomendo bastante
A última obra do mestre. Traça as diferenças entre a cosmopolita Paris e o rural Portugal, onde nos apercebemos do quanto campónios somos em relação aos nossos amigos franceses. É uma obra que podia facilmente ter sido escrita hoje.
Não é a leitura mais fácil mas é com certeza um livro que devem ler. Está bem presente a vertente descritiva de Eça. 😊
