“Manuel Alberto Mirra’s poems question us, leave us hesitant in search of the time we didn’t live in because we didn’t love. They are restless and disturbing pages and when this is the case, poetry has fulfilled its function of asking the soul”. – From the preface by Francisco Moita Flores
“Nus
No vento na aurora na Estrada
E na memória do sonho somos nus
Que encanta te prende e seduz
Só que sem ti a vida é nada!
As melodias que invento
À espera que no teu coração
Se ouça a letra da paixão.”
