“Love, Intransitive Verb” – A Dive into Human Emotions



Author: Mário de Andrade

Main Characters: Pedro, Anita, Tristão, Paulina, Bruno and Leonardo



Today, I immerse myself in the remarkably emotive literary universe of “Love, Intransitive Verb”, which was orchestrated by none other than the adept and profound Brazilian modernist author, Mário de Andrade.

A Transcendental Journey of Desire and Intrigue

“Love, Intransitive Verb” takes us through a tumultuous journey of desire and intrigue. We are introduced to Pedro, marred by a love that remained unrequited, a sentiment that resonates with many of us. A love that’s profound, intensely human, and yet unreciprocated.

Nature’s Aesthetic Allusions

I was awestruck by the juxtaposition and interchangeability of the external natural world with the internal world of human emotion. It reminded me significantly of the beauty that can be appreciated in nature, starkly contrasted with the often unpredictable terrain of the human heart.

Profound Human Relationships

As characters Anita, Tristão, Paulina, Bruno, and Leonardo become entwined in the narrative, they systematically encapsulate the complexities of human relationships. Together, they represent the array of connections we catalyze, weather, and sometimes, surrender to throughout our lives. It marked a parallel to the relational well I often draw insights from within our natural environment.
