Sinopse

Sonetos de birosca e poemas de terreiro is a witty book that, besides revealing Luiz Antonio Simas' rare ability to write verse, teaches with great skill the details that make popular and suburban life a unique experience of pleasures, transcendence and illumination.

In his first book of poetry, Luiz Antonio Simas once and for all establishes himself as one of the best and most versatile storytellers working in the country. Here, a collection of stories and curiosities about popular life are told in verse. Possessing a singular wisdom about the cultures that shape the identity of the Brazilian people and deeply attentive to the diversity of macumba and Catholicism, Simas composes sonnets and poems in free verse that lead his curious and mocking spirit to explore the limits of lyricism, humor, and faith. A lover of bars, pubs, and pubs, a follower of the precepts and respecter of mysteries, a regular at the jogo do bicho table and soccer afternoons at the Maracanã, his wisdom is accompanied by generous doses of cachaça and well-pulled draft beer, accompanied by the most delicious delicacies served on trays by the best waiters. The chemistry is perfect, and everything fits together.

"Simas, a wizard of words, shows that the bar and the terreiro meet, for both are places par excellence for intersections. Where people, thoughts, deities, and feelings collide, each leaving its mark on the other, knowingly or unknowingly, willingly or unwillingly. And from there, from the terreiro or the bar, each leaves carrying a little bit of the other." – Rafel Haddock-Lobo
