Camilo Ferreira Botelho Castelo-Branco,
1st Viscount de Correia Botelho (March 16, 1825 – June 1, 1890), was a prolific
Portuguese writer of the 19th century, having authored over 260 books (mainly
novels,
plays and
essays). His writing is, overall, considered original in that it combines the dramatic and sentimental spirit of
Romanticism with a highly personal combination of
sarcasm, bitterness and
dark humour. He is also celebrated for his peculiar
wit and anecdotal character, as well as for his turbulent (and ultimately tragical) life.
