The Book of Saudade (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798889239284)

The Book of Saudade flows between memories, places and surrealist dreamscapes. Saudade, the melancholic feeling of longing for absent things and people pervades the text. The narrator flits between dreamscapes like The Grand Hotel Abyss and the mundane everydayness of the real. The seasons shift in the background, from warm summers to contemplative falls, to unending winters and finally to spring as the narrator looks for solace in the turbulent waters of his mind.
