Antonio Moura's third collection has the clarity and urgency of a
black and white woodcut. A playful collusion of experimental and
traditional poetic styles, this collection has both a powerful
mythic reach and a bizarre neo-Baroque flavour. Life appears as
uncanny, mysterious, something to be faced by the individual. There
is a tension between spiritual insight and the sordid realities of
life, between the world of today and that of previous eras, between
the wider picture and the intensely personal. Moura's rhythms and
his questioning of contemporary assumptions about poetry and our
lives make this a powerful and distinctive - and one might say a
very 'Brazilian' - book.
