| Summary | "A Flor Secca: Romance" by Manuel Pinheiro Chagas is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Margarida, a young woman who, while navigating societal expectations and familial pressures, enters into an arranged marriage with Claudio da Cunha. As she grapples with her sense of self and her dreams of romance and artistry, she finds herself increasingly at odds with her new life and constricting domestic environment, particularly under the critical gaze of her husband's aunt, D. Antonia. At the start of the novel, we meet Margarida at a ball where she makes the acquaintance of Claudio, whom her father introduces as her intended spouse. The narrative introduces her inner thoughts, blending her romantic ideals with a sense of detachment towards her impending marriage. Despite the momentous news, she remains indifferent, marking the beginning of her struggle between her longing for an imaginative and passionate existence and the reality of her mundane domestic life. The opening chapters set the stage for her conflict as she navigates her initial feelings of excitement and subsequent sense of entrapment within the constraints of societal expectations and familial obligations.
