Love of Perdition — the masterpiece that Camilo wrote in just a fortnight after his imprisonment for «copulating with a married woman» in the Municipal Prison in front of Livraria Lello — inscribes into the pantheon of universal literature the love affair of Camilo and Ana Plácido in the form of Simão and Teresa. Enraptured in a life of happiness but dragged down to a necessarily sad end, after all, should a couple’s love survive death, it can hardly be experienced should only one pass onto the other side.
