“O Visconde das Camélias Carmesins” is the second novelistic foray by author Beatriz Meireles, which returns us to the sensitive strength of her narrative, this time in a historical novel full of tones, smells and romantic involvements from the 19th century, in an almost impressionistic approach to reality of Brazilians from Torna-Viagem. In this new novel by Beatriz Meireles, love and heartbreak coexist, wealth and poverty, the legitimacy and illegitimacy of the pleasurable physical and emotional relationships between men and women of that time, ephemeral joy and the deepest and most lenient sadness that, in timeless and non-geographical form, has always inhabited the “more than human in us”.
