«Locura» is the short novel by Mário de Sá-Carneiro, published by Celeste in paperback (64 pages, in Spanish).
The story delves into the mind of a man who unravels in obsessions, delusions and hallucinations, until reality blurs with an oppressive, dreamlike atmosphere. The Portuguese author's poetic prose sustains this descent into madness, with images that blur the boundaries between the real and the imagined.
Work originally published in 1910 as «Loucura...». Part of the Letra Celeste-Minúscula collection (no. 16), translated by Pedro Mireles.
For readers of brief classics of Portuguese literature and psychological tales with an unsettling atmosphere.
Mário de Sá-Carneiro was a Portuguese poet and writer. He is one of the best known authors of the Geração de Orpheu, and is usually considered their greatest poet, after Fernando Pessoa.
