Noites de insomnia, offerecidas a quem não póde dormir. Nº 07 (de 12)

Camilo Castelo Branco

1825–1890

A major figure in 19th-century Portuguese literature, this intensely prolific novelist is remembered for dramatic stories of love, fate, and social pressure. His life was as turbulent as his fiction, and that emotional force still gives his work its sting.
