Flashes of My Memory | António da Conceição Ruas

" The chronicles refer to colonial times and space is the city of Quelimane.

As chronicles, the text is unpretentious and does not intend to invest in a literary style with evident stylistic resources. However, the portrait of an era, the feeling, the point of view and some sorrows give it the descriptive intensity of the portrait of a time rich in conflict.

It is a rememorialist text that seeks to bear witness to the autobiographical type, which will certainly be read with pleasure, first of all by the contemporaries, who will certainly recognize or recognize the facts.

From a documental point of view, it is an important text, because it outlines the portrait of a society with very clear contours that interests younger generations, in that in the daily reports about Zambézia and Quelimane they may find in this text another piece to know the past of those stops."
