Summary | "Flirts" by Henrique de Vasconcellos is a collection of short stories written in the early 20th century. The work explores themes of love, flirtation, and social interactions, reflecting on the lives of various characters navigating romance and relationships. The stories likely feature a range of humorous and poignant exchanges between lovers and acquaintances, capturing the intricacies of human emotions. At the start of the collection, we are introduced to a setting that resembles a flirtation school, where a professor instructs a naive student named Maria do Carmo, who seeks to learn the art of flirting to navigate her new life in Lisbon. The professor is depicted as knowledgeable yet somewhat cynical, guiding his disciple through the nuances of societal expectations and flirtation techniques. Their dialogue reveals a blend of sophistication and humor as they discuss appearance, conversation, and the nature of romantic encounters, setting the tone for the exploration of interpersonal dynamics throughout the stories.
