It’s all so big
(Portuguese edition)
Why do we grow bigger and bigger?
Where do we get the will to grow?
Does it come from the longer days? The moons and the tides?
From the sun? Or the great big mountain?
(What a mystery!)

What they say
A book-song that brings its music with it.
No, it’s not an audio book, but if you listen carefully, you’ll certainly hear the music inside: the tides, the wind, the birds, the voices, the bones which grow throughout the night.
Prateleira-de-baixo blog, 24/03/2021
From the musicality of the words to the vibrations of the images, here, life is celebrated together with the grandiosity of Mother Nature’s cycles.
Raquel Silva, Timeout magazine, Spring 2021
There’s summer in this book. There’s a long holiday in the poem. There’s time everywhere. And an overwhelming dimension to the rivers, mountains, water courses, tracks and trails, colours which intensify and blend in a movement on an ever greater scale. (…) Recovering the concept of ‘lire par coeur’, it’s a book which directly connects to emotion.
Andreia Brites, Blimunda magazine / Fundação Sararamago, June 2021
