Correspondences
Jorge de Sena was forced to flee his home country. He first relocated to Brazil, then to the United States. He never went back to Portugal. During his 20-year exile, he maintained an ongoing correspondence with Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen. These letters bear witness to the two poets' deep friendship, letters of longing and desire to "fill years of distance with hours of conversation." A dialogue is established through excerpts and verses, revealing their divergent opinions but mostly their strong bond and their efforts to preserve it until their last breaths.
