Zumbi

poems and an essay · 2014

Cover of Zumbi: the title in large spaced letters, crossed by the name Danilo Augusto, on white paper with red spatters, and Coisa Edições running vertically at the lower left.

A small book in three parts, unpublished poems, previously published poems and a closing essay, printed independently by Coisa Edições in Porto Alegre in the autumn of 2014. The essay that closes it would be taken up again ten years later in Poema é isto.

Zumbi is not really a book about zombies. Or perhaps it is, a little. I believe it tries to understand something about the religious feeling of our time (or, at least, about mine).

From the note “sobre este livro” (about this book), 2014.
