O Coronel E O Lobisomem by José Cândido De Carvalho
Romance de uma vida fantástica
Set in the rural Brazilian landscape, this novel unfolds the whimsical tale of a flamboyant and boastful colonel who embarks on a series of humorous and exaggerated adventures. The story is steeped in local folklore and superstition, as the colonel becomes convinced that his family's estate is haunted by a werewolf. Through a blend of satire and magical realism, the narrative explores themes of tradition, power, and the clash between modernity and the old ways, all while painting a vivid picture of the eccentricities and idiosyncrasies of small-town life.
