CANÇÕES D'UM VAGABUNDO JOÃO PENHA E A VIAGEM POR TERRA AO PAÍS DOS SONHOS.

This imaginary and interior journey (which could be included in the first area that Maria Alzira Seixo identified on the Poetics of the Voyage) coincides, in short, with a deep motus animi continuus of the poet, who succeeded in condensing the interpretation key of his work in the most original and controversial of his titles: The Overland Journey to the Dreamland [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
