by José Maria de Eça de Queirós

“A Cidade e as Serras” é um romance do escritor português José Maria de Eça de Queirós que explora o contraste entre a vida agitada da cidade e a tranquilidade da vida rural. O protagonista, Jacinto, um homem cosmopolita e desiludido com a vida citadina, decide regressar à sua terra natal, Tormes, uma pequena vila na serra portuguesa.
