《巴西:未来之国》是一本了解巴西的最佳书籍。茨威格戴上康德的红色眼镜,见到一个玫瑰色的巴西。他于贫苦中看见美好,于哀伤中看到富饶,在苦痛中望见快乐。这是一部真正的杰作,由一位懂得观察、感受和生活的人写成,既有专业的研究,对数据的引用,也有一位可敬学者的感性观察。这本书完美地再现了巴西的过去,更寄托了茨威格对人类文明的全部希望。 Brazil: The Country of Tomorrow is the best book for learning about Brazil. Zweig put on Kant's red glasses and saw a rosy Brazilian. He saw beauty in poverty, richness in sorrow, pleasure in pain. This is a real masterpiece written by a person who knows how to observe, feel and live. It includes professional research, a reference to the data, and a sensible observation by respectable scholars. This book perfectly reproduced the past of Brazil and even placed Zweig's full hope on human civilization.
