Lobato

Monteiro Lobato received an inheritance that allowed him to return to his passion and publish his first short stories in newspapers and magazines. He also became a publisher and businessman, 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 is no French nose monopolizing the conversation". The letterhead of the "National Union of Industry and Commerce" also recalls that Monteiro Lobato, in addition to being a great writer, was also a successful businessman.
