This was such a good video! I now want to look into both of these authors and all of their works, for your discussion about them made me feel enthralled about wanting to know more. I am definitely inclined to learn more about South American literature and am curious to see the connection that Chico Buarque makes with Budapest. Thank you for sharing! -Josh

Thank you, Josh! I do hope you get to explore the works of Chico Buarque and Manuel Puig. I also want to read more by them and share my thoughts on here 😊
I did put Tropical Night Falling on my wishlist. Thanks for making me aware of it, I had never heard of this author before.

Elderly women protagonists is one of my favorite tropes. Will definitely check out Tropical Night Falling!

I hope you love it at least half as much as I did!
Well here we go again! I love the idea of Tropical Night Falling and Budapest. Off to do further damage to my budget. Thanks Juan. I have read Kiss of the Spider Woman as a result of seeing the film many many years ago. I enjoyed it very much.

I hope you have fun with both books! Tropical Night Falling is very special and if you enjoyed Kiss of the Spider Woman, I think you will also enjoy it a lot.
I love your recommendations. Would it be out of the question to hope for you to do a video on any Javier Marias novel in the near future? I saw your agenda for August already but I'm still keeping my hopes up. Love Javier Marias.

Thanks.I thought about doing that but I wasn't sure many people who watch it. Maybe I will, though!
I read Budapest ages ago. I liked it a lot, but I simply can't remember anything about it! 😆 Chico Buarque has also written a musical theatrical play, A Ópera do Malandro, that's such a gem.

@@JuanReads There's a video with the entire play being performed, in Alessandra Maestrini's channel. She was one of the main performers of the production.
