About This Book

O conjunto reúne poemas e prosas curtas que evocam a costa, o mar e a cidade por meio de imagens sensoriais, listas fragmentadas e saltos associativos. Sequências breves alternam observações marítimas, cenas populares e notas de feira com incursões surrealistas e manifestos sobre arte e criação. A voz varia entre ironia, lirismo e provocação, usando ritmo tipográfico e colagens verbais para criar efeito visual e sonoro. O tom muda frequentemente, do festivo ao melancólico, sugerindo simultaneamente movimento, memória e uma estética experimental que prioriza o choque e a descoberta.
