Ressurreição

Ressurreição

by Joaquim Maria Machado de Assis

Ressurreição, Machado de Assis's first novel, delves into the complexities of human relationships and the transformative power of love. The story follows a protagonist whose life is marked by fleeting, passionate affairs that ultimately leave him unfulfilled. A pivotal turning point arises when the seemingly impossible occurs, challenging his beliefs about love and the potential for lasting connection. Through insightful observations about human nature, the novel explores themes of doubt, change, and the pursuit of something beyond the fleeting.
