Cover of Poema é isto: the title in a pale panel with dark rules, over a mottled ochre ground like an old painting.

First considerations on the art of poetry, in the form of a short essay that develops the text closing Zumbi, accompanied by a small collection of new poems, a coda that asks, in the original, “quem inventará a matemática de uma alma? e, depois, onde escrevê-la?”. It was published in 2024 by Zero Edições, an imprint created by the author.

Singelo na extensão, mas gigante no horizonte das ideias que sugere ao leitor, Poema é Isto encarta um irrecusável convite à poesia.

From Pedro Carvalho’s synopsis of the book, in Portuguese.
