Alberto Pimenta - Ascensão de Dez Gostos a Boca

Book 4 of Alberto Pimenta's first four books, originally published in an author's edition, marks the beginning of a singular work that constantly challenges aesthetic and political conventions. It invites readers to reflect on contemporary times and question not only the political and social reality that permeates them, but also their formal and aesthetic representations.

Drawing from classical literature, lyric poetry, but also—or even more so—scorn and malice, Alberto Pimenta advances the poetic decontextualization and deconceptualization of meanings, subverting the signifiers themselves, leaving no stone unturned in his verses and prose, sometimes literally.
