内容説明
This is an autobiography of Miguel Torga. Of the six days which comprise "The Creation", this volume contains the two which recreate Torga's childhood spent in the Tras-os-Montes province, as the son of an illiterate peasant family scraping a living off the rocky flanks of "The Mountain"; and a boyhood of near servitude to his uncle in Brazil, on a remote estate carved out of the serrao. Returning to Portugal, Torga resumed an education curtailed at primary school by poverty. He qualified as a doctor and returned to practice in his native village, where his "Tales" ("Contos" and "Novos Contos da Montanha") are set. Torga experienced the banning of his books and imprisonment by the Salazar regime. Even after the Revolution in 1974 Torga remained sceptical. He was feted and translated into most of the languages of Europe, but he remained a man of the Tras-os-Montes, committed to his people and opposed to the inequalities that persisted. By the time he died in 1995, he had written over 50 books.
