n. a feeling of resonant connection with an author or artist you’ll never meet, who may have lived centuries ago and thousands of miles away but can still get inside your head and leave behind morsels of their experience, like the little piles of stones left by hikers that mark a hidden path through unfamiliar territory.
Como o copo que se eleva lentamente,
glacial, numa tarde de remorso,
os teus beijos duma grande difusão clara,
e o fumo dum cigarro à procura
dum ponto no mar.
