Reading the same book in italian and in portuguese is super fun! And by super fun I mean "It was easier to learn a new language when I was a kid, now it's mostly annoying".

Pickpick

A truly poignant piece from the beginnings of Italian romanticism, Foscolo gifts readers with the tragic story of a man who, ridden with the loss of his one true love, the hopelessness of his homeland, and the condemning consolation of nature's omnipresent beauty, succumbs to the solitude of his misery. I highly recommend reading the work, whether it be in Italian or in translation! It is certain to evoke feelings of sympathy and wonder. ☆
