We need more translations of Caio's books., 9 Nov 2000
By Sylvio - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Whatever Happened to Dulce Veiga?: A B-Novel (Texas Pan American Series) (Hardcover)
Caio is known in Brazil by his short stories. Whatever Happened to Dulce Veiga is his first and only novel and it is wonderful. I started reading Caio when I was in College in Brazil and since then I have a extremely passion for his works. I read some of his stories more than five times because they are full of poetry and beauty. He creates a world at once familiar and fabulous. After reading all his short stories and his post mortem book, I read Dulce Veiga. I don't know how I took so long. It's witty and magical. I may say that I was truly sorry when the book ended. I wanted more and I wanted to call him and tell how much I did I enjoy it. It was too late. He had died a year before I read it. Nevertheless I am happy that the book will be released in the U.S. I do hope the American public can understand Caio and his stories.

Abreu tells a too surreal, gimicky tale.., 12 May 2005
By Peter LaPrade - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Whatever Happened to Dulce Veiga?: A B-Novel (Texas Pan American Series) (Paperback)
Caio Abreu has a interesting type of tale to tell, but it didn't quite work well. In his novel "Whatever Happened to Dulce Veiga?", a jaded journalist is send to cover a new musical group, and finds that one of them is the daughter of Dulce Veiga, who vanished over 20 years before. In between odd homoerotic fantasties and surreal images of a Brazilean cult, the journalist searches for Dulce and himself. The chapter are themed by days, and feature images of Brazilian cult "gods". I credit Abreu for his courage, but this isn't a good novel by any criteria
