Lobato

Monteiro Lobato received an inheritance that allowed him to pursue his passion and publish his first short stories in newspapers and magazines. He also became an editor and businessman, also starting to print books in Brazil at a time when Brazilian books were published in Paris or Lisbon.

In this letter, there is a hint of jealousy when he says that he wants another meeting where "there won't be a French nose monopolizing the conversation". The heading of the "Sindicato Nacional de Industria e Commercio" also reminds us that Monteiro Lobato, in addition to being a great writer, was also a successful businessman.
