Summary "A Confissão de Lucio: Narrativa" by Mário de Sá-Carneiro is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers on Lucio, a man who has spent ten years in prison for a crime he did not commit, and his attempts to express his innocence through a personal confession. As he reflects on his past, readers are introduced to other characters in a richly portrayed backdrop of Parisian life and artistic circles, exploring themes of identity, art, and human connection. The opening of the novel introduces Lucio as he contemplates his unjust imprisonment for the murder of Ricardo de Loureiro, a renowned poet. He expresses a deep sense of resignation, feeling both alive and dead due to his experiences. Lucio narrates his backstory, revealing his aimless youth in Paris where he mingled with various artists, including his friend Gervasio Vila-Nova. As Lucio begins to recount the events that led to his incarceration, he introduces readers to the vibrant personalities surrounding him, including the enigmatic American woman and the poet himself, foreshadowing the complex relationships and emotional turmoil that will develop throughout the narrative. Lucio's reflections and confessions serve as a poignant exploration of guilt, innocence, and the existential struggles faced by individuals whose lives are irrevocably changed by circumstances beyond their control.
