Anything by a brazilian.

>asshole beta piece of shit writes his lifestory about how he was always in love with this woman, but could never trust her even after they married while asking for forgiveness from his reader

Interesting idea with the most horrible prose imaginable. Incredibly dry, sluggish, without any soul, clearly the brain child of a depressed lawyer / journalist (as most brazilian writers are).

Thanks to this novel "Dom Casmurro", brazilian literature lost all soul that was previously set up by romantic authors.

>woman reflects upon her life when she sees a cockroach, eventually deciding to eat the cockroach after killing it as a metaphore for women overcoming their attachments to their historical roles in society

Then again, interesting idea for a literary novel. Result: a product as dry as the 'To Buy' list of a supermarket, as it's a trend in brazilian works. The refusal of the brazilian to toy with words and embrace sin (colombian authors, per example, turn sin into art and write incredibly sexy literature).

Seriously, can brazilians explain to me how out of so many depressing countries, they write the driest literature possible even though they live in a happy tropical country?

How the fuck are these observations even related to the thread? You must be brazilians, as you are only able to entertain the thought of a bunda shaking while your civilization degenerates into a monkey zoo pit.
