Paulo Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 My name is Paulo and I'm a twenty-two-year-old guy from Brazil. I've been reading some threads for some days and I realised it was time for me to sign up. I'm impressed by how mate you all are. I hope I can stay, make friends, immerse myself into the cultural differences, learn about a sort of different point of views, improve my english reading and my cultural background by being open-minded to new books, stories, histories and knowledge. You all have a lot to share with and If I may be useful in return for all of those ones I'll be thankful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paulo Posted November 27, 2010 Author Share Posted November 27, 2010 Welcome Paulo! That was a lovely introduction. Do you have a favourite book or author? It's hard to say, but in the portuguese/brazilian literature I like Eça de Queirós and Guimarães Rosa. In the german literature I go for Kafka; Spanish, Miguel de Cervantes. British, Agatha Christie(my english knowledge haven't yet allowed me to enjoy neither Shakespeare nor Thomas More, since I don't want to read translation editions of these authors in particular). American literature I enjoy Stephen King and Tess Gerritsen, I think they are good but not that great. I do want to read Dostoyevsky, but I need to fit it in since I'm too busy at the moment. Unfortunately I could be called Illiterate in the french literaturem, but I swear I'll turn it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I could be called Illiterate in the french literaturem, but I swear I'll turn it out. I like most of the writers you mentioned! My favourite is Eça... well, I am portuguese and that may explain a lot! Wellcome. I'm sure you will enjoy this forum! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
