Da arte das armadilhas

After receiving twice in a row the City of Belo Horizonte prize, Ana Martins Marques decided to gather her poems and publish the book The underwater life. The impact was immediate: the electronic media was considered "an absolute must", "an event", "a compelling revelation." In Bravo, Fabricio Carpinejar hailed his "clearance of language, a colloquialism that elevates the prosaic and demystifies the grandiose". Art of the pitfalls is her second book. Companhia das Letras is especially proud of having the author in his collection of contemporary poetry, certain that this is a voice that comes to occupy a place in the backdrop of important poets of the country, enriching it with their particularity.

You have to read, "and concludes:" I plunged headlong, went from cover to cover in one breath. "
