os mortos vivem

Comecei ontem a devorar a série que apelidei carinhosamente de Os Retornados: Les Revenants. "Não são zombies nem fantasmas: voltam de repente, tal e qual como eram antes de morrerem. Não conseguem dormir e estão sempre com fome", conta-me a amiga Panda, que descobre sempre estas pérolas. Visualmente arrebatadora, é estupidamente bem escrita e um … Continue reading os mortos vivem

‘Lady of the Sea’ – Peafowl

Lord Peafowl hadn’t really meant to kill his father. Granted, he had waited impatiently for his father to die, even secretly prayed for it on occasion during mass, but he didn’t intend for the old man to die by his hands. If only he hadn’t said those things to him, shouting that he was useless, … Continue reading ‘Lady of the Sea’ – Peafowl

destinos

- Uma vez leram-me a sina, há muitos anos atrás - conta-me ela à luz do pequeno candeeiro que já lhe fere a vista. Abre a palma da mão em frente à cara: - "Você devia ter casado nova. Agora já não casa." Devia ter sido o João. Era tão apaixonado por mim... Eu fui … Continue reading destinos

Isidora & the goblins & Ian Beck

It's the goblins! It's always the goblins. They broke my MacMini last December, constricting my online existence to: a) my not-so-smart-phone b) my no-social-networking-in-the-workplace access at work. Fair enough, little goblins: it means less distractions and I've been writing more & drawing more and even ventured into paints and canvases. But when I receive an … Continue reading Isidora & the goblins & Ian Beck

The San∂man

Things need not have happened to be true. Tales and dreams are the shadow-truths that will endure when mere facts are dust and ashes, and forgot. Dream, in Sandman #19: "A Midsummer Night's Dream", Neil Gaiman

Sem TV por opção. Sem PCs porque os goblins gostam do ambiente lá em casa. Alarga-se a dispersão à mais-ou-menos-escultura.

música para dias de chuva

Photo: Julé Malet-Veale Cada vez mais acho que a melhor música de Inverno é feita por canadianos. Descobri os Hey Rosetta! há uns anos, graças ao seu genial conterrâneo e apaixonei-me pela miríade de cordas no meio das guitarradas. Este (passado) ano descobri o Seeds (2011), que canta a nostalgia do já-não-temos-vinte-anos e é um daqueles … Continue reading música para dias de chuva

‘Lady of the Sea’ – The Golden Queen

Isola the Fair was the oldest and palest of seven sisters. Much to his misfortune, her father, King Malik the Good, had failed to produce a male heir, just as he had failed at everything else. History remembered him as one of the kindest, most generous kings the country had ever known – a reputation … Continue reading ‘Lady of the Sea’ – The Golden Queen

‘Lady of the Sea’ – Azov & the Pirates

It was their hundredth day of journey, with no other ship in sight. Azov, the Mighty Pirate, had been sailing the Southern Ocean, where they were supposed to attack and plunder all the ships they came across with. All except the fleet from the Golden Queen, who had secretly hired them to weaken the power … Continue reading ‘Lady of the Sea’ – Azov & the Pirates
