About this book
Winner of the most prestigious poetry prize in Brazil in 1991, the Bienal Nestle de Literatura, the first book of Davino Ribeiro de Sena, Castelos de Areia ("Sand Castles") has a fluidity that comes from the use of lyrical sentences that alternate with the best joke-poems ("poemas-piada"), both infused with compassionate feelings towards ordinary realities of life and human weaknesses (from review by Claudio Raja Gabaglia Lins in UNIVERSA, Catholic University of Brasilia, 1994).
