Feliciana, stubborn and given to dreaming, has loved the Romantic poet Gonçalves Dias for most of her life. What she knows of him comes from letters he wrote to his intimate friend Teófilo, which Teófilo's wife lets her read, and as she writes about them she comes to understand her own heart. Her world also holds a father who keeps caged songbirds, the very birds of the poet's most famous verses, a timid schoolmaster who adores her, and a kindly but strict governess, in a portrait of provincial manners, Indigenous culture and Romantic verse.
