A Cidade do Vício

Credits: Fialho de Almeida (author)

Summary

Fialho de Almeida's first great collection of tales opens with a prelude, the Symphonia de Abertura, and follows with twelve vivid stories of country and city, among them Os Novilhos, O Roubo, A Camisa and Madona do Campo Santo. His prose is dense, sensuous and unsparing, and was a landmark of Portuguese naturalism.

Written by Claude Sonnet 5.5, an AI assistant, from the text of the book.
