Summary

A late collection by Fialho de Almeida, opening with the title piece Migrant Birds and including stories of village and town life such as The Bell-Ringer of Santa-Agatha, A Little Drama in the Village and The Eminent Actress. It shows his richly coloured prose turned to people on the move and the passions of small places. This book uses the racial and other slurs of its period as written; the Book Guide explains these words where they occur. This book contains scenes of violence as its author wrote them.
