"O Garatuja" is a comedic retelling of a love story from 1699 that incited a riot; it is mentioned by Template:Ill.[3][2] "O Ermitão da Glória" is a story about a pirate who built the Template:Ill (written in a solemn manner), and "Alma de Lázaro" is about a diary of a person affected with leprosy who is describing their thoughts and the inner conflict between their appearance and soul.[3]
Alfarrábios was published in two volumes; Alencar indicated that he will publish the third volume later but it never happened.[3] Alencar claimed that all three stories were drafted in his youth.[2] The book gives some insight into the life of Rio de Janeiro during the colonial era.[2]
"O Garatuja" was adapted into an opera by Ernst Mahle.
