Cidade e as Serras

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. Acompanhado pelo seu amigo Zé Fernandes, ele confronta a simplicidade e a beleza natural da vida no campo, e começa a questionar os valores e as prioridades da sociedade urbana.
