I've seen on Goodreads a whole lot of people who claim that it's hard to understand, and they complain that the Portuguese words aren't translated, etc.<br /><br />And I think of siccing Micheline (from Mills, Micheline Aharonian Marcom) on them, and having her give them the little rant about LAZY READERS.
