About this ebook

In "The Devil's Church", by Machado de Assis, the Devil, tired of his usual role as tempter, decides to create his own church to lead mankind astray. He promises men power and pleasure, but without the fear of eternal hell, offering a religion of debauchery and hedonism. The satire deals with the corruption and hypocrisy of religious institutions, revealing human nature and its contradictions.
