Talk:António Lobo Antunes

This is my first time, so I may not be following protocol. In any case, I want to point out that in the Lobo Antunes article there are at least two mistakes relating to the novel Conhecimento do Inferno. As of this writing it is nItalic textot available in English (Dalkey archives plans a translated edition for 2007 or 2008). Second, the title must be translated as Knowledge of Hell, because it comes from an epigraph at the beginning of the book, a quotation from an unfavorable 1860 review of George Eliot’s The Mill on the Floss: “Rather we believe that the effect of such fictions tends to render those who fall under their influence unfit for practical exertion … by intruding on minds which ought to be guarded from impurity the unnecessary knowledge of hell.” (edit)
