Life as a passage. This anthology of poetry, Track of Time, contains 77 poems which explored themes of ephemerality and permanence.


It’s a book about time and its reflexes, cycles and seasons, as moods whose trajectory begins with the notion of “losing the track” but reaches “on time” at the end.


A work summarized by the verses of a brief and flying being: “if you spend your luck/ beholding a bee/ honey is always/ a symbol/ of the sweetest great/ little being”.


Poetry helps us remember, after all, that happiness is simple: “like a time/ where’n’ver”.

Track of Time is the debut poetry book in English by João Monteiro, an Italian-Brazilian poet, translator, musician lawyer, and author of books such as Gavetário (Drawers, São Paulo, 2012), O homem itinerante (The itinerant man, Curitiba, 2014), and Pelos Cantos (By Songs, Lisbon, 2016). As a translator, he published Sendas Luminosas (Shining Paths: three Romanian poets, Curitiba, 2019), among other works translated from Romance languages.
