Loose Talks at the House of Words

Conversas Soltas na Casa das Palavras (Loose Conversations in the House of Words), by Emília Amor, is an original journey: never before have words been navigated in this way.

Feeling words, thinking about them, discovering how they allow us to build ideas and how they awaken creativity – this is the starting point for an original book by Emília Amor, in which the characters, engaged in lively conversations, delve into the Portuguese language as if entering a territory full of paths to explore.

In Conversas Soltas na Casa das Palavras, each discovery opens up new ways of speaking, imagining, and understanding the world. Throughout the various episodes, the characters thus build a living awareness of the language: the language of the present they inhabit, the language of the history they inherited, the language that carries and transforms culture.

Following the rhythm of this fiction, the reader is also invited to join the game: to rediscover the pleasure of conversation, listening, and paying attention to words; and to reconnect with language as a space for curiosity, reflection, and creation.
