Faro e Enigmas – Poetry

A poetry that breathes Angola and engages with the world

Poet Elsa Major presents to the public her latest poetic work, FARO E ENIGMAS, a book in which the word becomes breath, territory and inner journey.

After a consolidated path in Portuguese-language poetry, Elsa Major returns with an intense, sensory book, deeply rooted in Angolan cultural identity, bringing together memory, eroticism, spirituality and landscape.

Elsa Major leads us through settings that evoke the Namibe Desert, the Atlantic, the Kalahari, the Restinga, oral traditions and ancestral symbols. The work explores themes such as:

— Love and sensuality

— Memory and identity

— Spirituality and faith

— War and humanity

— Nature and belonging
