Sharon Olds - The Solution
Finally they got the Singles problem under control, they made it scientific. They opened huge Sex Centers—you could simply go and state what you want and they would find you someone who wanted that too.

Frank Lima - Incidents of Travel in Poetry
and call it art. We were piloted by Auden who became

steamy skies of his beloved West Africa. The termites and ants

Surma - Maasai
Débora Umbelino tem 21 anos e é de Leiria, mas o que nos traz vem de locais bem mais exóticos.Surma é o seu projecto em formato one-woman band, no qualdomina teclas, samplers, cordas, vozes e loop stations em sonoridades que fogem do jazz parao pós-rock, da electrónica para o noise, e nos levam para paragens mais ou menos incertas, com paisagens desconhecidas e muito prazer na viagem.
