Here in Portugal, Agustina Bessa-Luís is one of the greatest authors.... and I had the privilege of illustrating this one.  The first edition came out in 2006 in big art book format.  And now this one, that I illustrated, which is in a smaller, more accessible form, and created in a really classy mid-20th century kind of book style, with cloth binding and hard cover, with my B&Ws inside.  It's out now.  It's a lovely object.

It is actually a great book. Beautiful illustrations, with some of our historical personalities, and a very interesting text from Agustina.

a note to newcomers

However you have found this brain dump of mine please note that:
a. this is a blog.  It is a bit of fun.  It is written on a certain day then left behind, I never go back and edit... ANYTHING.
b. before you take it upon yourself to tell me off for being misanthropic and awful, first, remember you might be missing something in my ridiculous writing, second, stop going out of your way to be offended and go and find some mermaids and fluffy things to look at.
c. then again, if you're moved to express your contempt of me, then good... at least I have moved you to SOMETHING.
d. that is all.
