Have you ever had a day—or even just a moment—when it feels like nothing is going right? Maybe everything just keeps going wrong, no matter what you do, and it’s almost like there’s a little rain cloud following you around!
Maybe you know what it’s like to bite your tongue when you’re eating something yummy or stub your toe on the table when you’re not looking. Or maybe, just like the silly character in this book, your mum or dad sometimes bumps their head right before bedtime! Don’t worry, everyone has days like this, and our character’s silly accidents and funny moments might make you giggle and think, “Hey, I’ve done that too!”
Sometimes, out of nowhere, little disasters pop up—like tripping over your own shoelaces or dropping your snack on the floor. When that happens, you might just say, “umm…” because you don’t even know what to say!
Wait a second… what do we say again? Oh yeah, it’s,
“OUCH!”
But don’t worry, friends, he didn’t bonk his head again, I pinky promise! If you want to find out about all the silly things he gets up to, you’ll have to read the book. Maybe you’ll giggle when you see his crashes, wallops, and all the bumpy bumps, because maybe you’ve had days just like that too!
Let’s hope you’re a little bit luckier than this goofy little character. No more ouchies, please! Promise?

If a woman’s life could be gathered into four seasons, her true season would be the Season of the Sardine. It is the moment when even hope seems lost, when branches fall silent, when all roots appear dry, yet from the smallest crack in the earth a woman rises again.
Season of the Sardine tells the story of all women through Buket, Şoger and Sevda. In the nature of existence, one strikes like lightning, another chills like deep winter, and another blooms like spring in the heart. Love sinks from the heart into the stomach. Workers leave for distant lands. Two angels choose human form. Four generations grow up without a mother. Humi and Buket cross into the hidden realms of being.
When the Season of the Sardine arrives, a woman is no longer who she once was. She becomes everything she has endured and everything she has transformed into. Women cling to young branches. They bow before the fire. They rise like flame. They melt the frost with the sun. They slip into the hair of the world like a quiet rebellion.
Humanity begins to see that life is not long enough to hide our true feelings. Since the first stories of the earth, women have given birth to a new identity for humankind. If the Season of the Sardine had a lens, it would show the lamps that unite every root between East and West.
Souls are blessed with incense. Songs rise from the dust of death. Violins bloom from graves. Clarinets sprout from pots. The sixth season, the Season of the Sardine, stands outside all calendars and belongs only to itself.

Babel Alcochete Is the Gate of Eden
What if the western edge of Europe preserved an older map of beginnings?
In this provocative investigation, Luís Pereira reopens the case of Eden, Babel, and the Trojan narrative—not as distant legends pinned to the eastern Mediterranean, but as layered memories embedded in the landscape of the Tagus estuary. Drawing on overlooked historical writers, biblical frameworks, classical hints about a far-western “garden”, and a dense web of local toponyms, Babel Alcochete is the Gate of Eden, proposing that Alcochete and its surrounding territories may preserve the structural footprint of an ancient civilisational hub: a second Eden in the land of Shinar; a Babel that later traditions displaced eastward; and a “Trojan” conflict stripped of its religious core by modern retellings.
This is not a demand for blind belief but a call for targeted research—where text, territory, and tradition can finally be tested side by side.
UNESCO crowned an “official” Troy in Ilion, Turkey, as if the memory of the West could fit into an incomplete scenario. Herbert, on the contrary, describes an entire story—a biblical one—where Eden is not an ornament but an origin. And the Greeks, in speaking of the garden of golden apples in the far west of Europe, left a clue. When Homeric Troy was amputated of its religious core, a secular Troy was born: a beautiful but dehydrated story, incapable of recognising Eden as the cradle of the cities of the Tagus estuary, open to the ocean.
There is a contrast that is difficult to ignore. On one hand, the certified Troy in Ilion (Turkey) is dependent on a reconstruction that rarely presents itself as a complete narrative. On the other hand, Herbert’s reading is of biblical origin, which integrates Eden as a founding axis—precisely that “garden of the far west” that Greek tradition echoes in the motif of the golden apples. The problem is that when Homeric Troy is reduced to a human drama and detached from its religious grammar, a secular story is gained, but the key is lost: the notion of Eden as origin—and, with it, the possibility of seeing the Tagus estuary, facing the Atlantic, as the cradle of an aggregated civilisational geography.

I was truly amazed to discover the extent of my family tree and to handle the scope of it and just how many times, over the centuries, the same families keep cropping up. I am blessed that my record is as full as it is, and, of course, everybody else has a similar record; it just might not be as visible.

The Neverending Dance is a true tale of what happened to me from summer 1967 till December 1968 in London, Paris and Rome, told in verse. Paris’s left bank, Roma Dolce Vita, and the Cannes Film Festival—almost everyone mentioned was well known in their own fields. When I wrote it, I felt as if I had lifted off the ground, almost flying with joy at the memory of it. It was another time, different from today’s time.
