Decomposed Tales C L T Vasconcellos

This work of fiction presents the tragedy of complex characters. The stories are conducted in a fine line between a delightful pessimism and the acceptance of the heavy fate that is imposed on men. The stories have layers that address loneliness, pain, vanity, awareness of the brevity of life, and a reflection on human values. The human contradiction is presented in a visceral way. This book features simple stories that evolve into intense tragic or psychologically striking events. The Fly and The Truck Driver: the story of an international trucker on one of his trips in Europe. A different fly will accompany his trip. JD. Ney Matos Milton: the routine of a Brazilian lawyer, in the turbulent city of Sao Paulo. A Vulture Tale: a vulture tells about a "meal" that marked it differently. The Two Boys: a brief reflection on time and the existence of things. The Reason of Honor: a medieval tale about a Portuguese nobleman and the consequences of his arrogance. The Infestation of Tradition: a medieval tale about the inquisition and a macabre tradition of "burning the cat".
