Abstract

Sinais de Fogo [Signal of Fire] narrates the way Jorge, born with the character of a poet, had to wait for his nature to manifest it in due time, after having assumed, even against his own will and initial oddness, his condition and, for that reason, finally, he had to respond to his inner need, fulfilling that will, in his resolution to write. In the construction of the four poems that he goes through in the narrative, a cycle of four is completed, symbolic of the conclusion of his own existential cycle that they imitate, having fulfilled the rite of passage to maturity, from an age when he was merely a spectator of life to another age, new, in which he became the protagonist (of the novel and his existence).
