Summary | "Amparo (Memorias de un loco)" by Manuel Fernández y González is a novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative explores themes of disillusionment, identity, and social commentary through the eyes of the protagonist, who is an affluent man reflecting on the experiences of his life, particularly in relation to a young girl named Amparo, who represents innocence and suffering within a harsh society. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to a profoundly introspective and disenchanted narrator, who grapples with the existential weight of his experiences and the futility of life. He shares his thoughts late at night, feeling cold and alone, leading to a deep contemplation about the nature of life, love, and loss. As he roams the streets of Madrid, he encounters Amparo, a young girl scavenging for scraps—her look and demeanor evoke within him a complex mix of compassion and a desire to save her from her grim existence. This meeting sets off a series of reflections on societal issues, personal despair, and the tension between wealth and moral responsibility, showcasing the narrator's internal conflict as he seeks to understand his role in Amparo's life and the world around him.
