Livros de Ontem publisher is pleased to present you "There are also vultures to glide in paradise", with poems by Carlos Nuno Granja.

Synopsis

The more we write, a pure gesture of solitude and selfishness, the more often we reach the depth of being. And we think, always, what we are and what we are, what we are to be. The world is a closed capsule for you, like a belly button that shows itself to reach social climax and overflowing with arrogance to an empty audience. We are being overly selfish and individualistic. We are showing armchair indignation, snuggling, at a distance, in comfort zones, screaming loudly out the window, judging the indifference of others, disdaining their existence, but invoking the supremacy of their very existence. In the background, what we are, what each one is, a project of gray, a compact room, an emptiness, an end that warns us, take advantage while it was time. Now, the infinite has no answer.

 

NOTE: The book will be worth € 12 during the crowdfunding campaign and € 14 after the closing.
