Stormy Isles, originally published in Portuguese in 1944 and set in the Azores between 1917 and 1919, focuses on the vivacious and sharp Margarida, who, at twenty years of age, is a model of feminist aspirations and the paragon of her generation. A member of the elite, she foregoes some of the entitlements of her class and struggles with the morals of the bourgeois society in which her life unfolds. Narrated in realist and poetic language as a series of interconnected tales within a larger story, this completely revised translation of Stormy Isles provides a rich, vivid portrait of the Azores in the early twentieth century.
This book is based on a true story experienced by the author in his life. Paseka was apprehended and sentenced to three years imprisonment for a crime he did not commit. His legal proceeding was unfairly litigated. He was not assumed to be innocent until proven guilty; instead, he was found guilty based on hearsay prior to court proceedings. He was not given a chance to state his side of the story and his conviction negatively affected his life, profession and his occupation as a teacher. His character and reputation were tainted in toto. It separated him from his family and his parents passed away while he was in prison for a crime he did not commit. This book is all about change or emancipation.
