One of this writer's short stories deals with a woman who is "not a dressmaker, nor a landlady, nor a governess" and her relationship with a lawyer. In addition to "A Singular Occurance", this writer wrote the poetry collections Crisalidas and Americanas. This man wrote a sequel to his novel Esau and Jacob in a novel about the widow Rita, Ayres' Memorial. This author may be better known for a picaresque novel which features the mistress Virgilia, the insane Quincas Borba, and the unemotional title character of The Posthumous Memoirs of Bras Cubas. This author revisited the character Quincas Borba in his novel Philosopher or Dog?, but his best known novel features the characters Bento and Capitu, who are related to Santiago. For ten points, identify this author of Dom Casmurro, a Brazilian.
