QR code
"Serão inquieto: contos" by António Patrício is a collection of short stories written in the early 20th century. The work explores themes of longing, existential despair, and the complex nature of human emotions, with characters facing their inner struggles and societal constraints. The stories are likely infused with a mix of introspection and vivid imagery, reflecting the author's unique perspective on the human experience. The opening of the collection presents a vivid
dialogue with an old caged eagle, which serves as a metaphor for lost freedom and the oppression of both animals and humans. The protagonist encounters this eagle in a neglected cage and engages in a philosophical conversation about life, love, and the platitudes of civilization. The eagle, once a magnificent creature, laments its captivity, sharing painful memories and insights about existence, love, and the condition of humanity. This dialogue sets a somber and reflective tone for the rest of the collection, hinting at the exploration of deeper themes concerning the nature of desire, freedom, and the essence of life itself.
