In 1965 Verissimo published the romance O Senhor Embaixador ('His Excellency, the Ambassador'), in which he reflected upon the deviations of Latin America. Four of his, Time and the Wind, Night, Mexico, and His Excellency, the Ambassador, were translated into the English language by Linton Lomas Barrett. His historical trilogy O Tempo e o Vento ('The Time and the Wind') is considered as his greatest work, written in the period of 1949-1961, from which arose primordial characters such as Ana Terra and CapitГЈo Rodrigo that went on to become popular amongst his readers. His epic O Tempo e o Vento ('The Time and the Wind'') became one of the great masterpieces of the Brazilian novel, alongside Os SertГµes by Euclides da Cunha, and Grande SertГЈo: Veredas by GuimarГЈes Rosa. This period of his life was recorded in some of his books, including: Gato Preto em Campo de Neve ('Black Cat in a Snow Field'), A Volta do Gato Preto ('The Return of the Black Cat'), and HistГіria da Literatura Brasileira ('History of Brazilian Literature'), which contains some of his lectures at UCLA. Between 19 he was director of the Department of Cultural Affairs of the Organization of American States, in Washington, D.C. In 1943 he moved with his family to the United States, where he gave lessons on Brazilian Literature in the University of Berkeley, until 1945. Verissimo married in 1931 to Mafalda Volpe and had two children, Luis Fernando Verissimo, also a writer, and Clarissa. The following year, he saw his first great success with the romance Clarissa. He published his first work, Fantoches ('Puppets'), in 1932, with a sequence of short stories, mostly in the form of short plays. He then undertook the whole editorial project at Editora Globo, propelling its nationwide fame. In the following year, he was hired to occupy the position of secretary of edition of the Revista do Globo, of which he would become editor in 1933. There he began to live around writers of renown, such as MГЎrio Quintana, Augusto Meyer, Guilhermino CГ©sar and others. He then moved to Porto Alegre in 1930, willing to live solely by selling his writing.

Verissimo settled in Cruz Alta as the owner of a drugstore, but was unsuccessful. His father, heir of a rich family in Cruz Alta, met financial ruin during his son's youth and, as a result, Erico didn't complete secondary school because of the need to work. Г‰rico Verissimo was the son of SebastiГЈo Verissimo da Fonseca and Abegahy Lopes Verissimo.
