Publisher's Synopsis
A sip of wind invites you into the bright angles of its home, entertaining your senses at nearly every turn - of course, in the bedroom, but also in the kitchen and especially outside: strawberry tobacco, thick coffee, orange blossom water, all the meats you can imagine. Simões' style, eloquent and assertive, dances with and around the many women in this book, or perhaps the one woman in this book. Maybe she is the poet, maybe she is you. Whoever she is, what is clear is that she carries her home with her everywhere.
