Two hundred for one man

In the novel The Man Who Died Twice by George Amado, the scene of tragedy reflects the disbelief of physical death in moments of life with its flashes and clashes outside the files of life's constraints, life with its trees and birds, with its calm and storms, and the longing for everything it throws and bestows. After the hero of the story dies, amazement begins among his friends and lover, and that amazement turns into intimacy and continuity in their adventures as if things are normal. The world collapses before them, and that burning love turns into a blaze in bars and streets, and they exchange glances. A frightening fantasy shrouded in the grandeur of transparency in dealing with the unknown, and the explosion of the world's boundaries, as well as the tragedy of his lover, who cannot practice love with him under the pretext of drunkenness, and her reproach for that, even though she has been drunk since she knew him.
