by José Maria de Eça de Queirós

Cartas da Inglaterra is a collection of essays written by Portuguese author José Maria de Eça de Queirós during his time as a diplomat in England. The essays offer a critical and insightful look at English society, politics, and culture from the perspective of a foreigner. Eça de Queirós discusses a wide range of topics, including the British class system, the role of the monarchy, the state of the British economy, and the country's foreign policy.
