Murilo Rubião

Brazilian author (1916-1991) · Brazil · On the map · Writers · Died at 75

Murilo Rubião was a Brazilian writer. His entire work consists of short stories, best described as surreal fables in the tradition of Franz Kafka - this being so, Rubião's work must be seen as part of the Magic Realism movement of late 20th-century Latin America.

Murilo Rubião is read about 30 times a day, in 9 languages.

The middle day of the days counted, so one week of news cannot move it. The line under it is the last 60 days, one point a day.
