Correspondences
Jorge de Sena had to flee his homeland. He first moved to Brazil, then to the United States. He never came back to Portugal. He wrote to Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen during his 20-year exile. These letters provide witness to the two poets' deep friendship, letters of longing and the desire to "fill years of distance with hours of talk." A dialogue is constructed through snippets and verses, illustrating their differing viewpoints but most importantly, their close friendship, and their efforts to keep it alive until their final breaths.
