| Summary | "Crónicas imorais" by Albino Forjaz de Sampaio is a collection of essays or chronicles likely written in the early 20th century. The book presents a series of reflections and critiques on various aspects of society, morality, and the human condition, expressed through a sharp and often cynical lens. The author hints at exploring the contradictions of life, engaging with themes of poverty, artistic struggle, and societal indifference. The opening of the work introduces the author's intent and perspective on the collection, indicating a certain detachment from the writings, which he views as mere fleeting impressions. He discusses the nature of the pieces as they reflect his views on humanity and morality, claiming they are "imoral" for provoking discomfort among those adhering to conventional morals. With a notable tone of irony, he comments on societal failures, artistic struggles, and the absurdity of human conditions, providing a glimpse into a provocative and unfiltered examination of life during the era. The author also hints at the futility of ambition and the harsh realities faced by artists, setting a reflective yet critical tone for the essays that follow.
