NBM 160 Broadway, Suite 700 East, New York, NY 10038 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS To those who share my life, thank you for your support, in every sense of the term, during the two long years I was immersed in the making of this book. Many of the digital files in the first part were patiently “cleaned up” by Sarah Mattey and Anthony Neaulleau. The Portuguese dialogue in the third part was translated by Helder Wasterlain. Sylvie Duvelleroy carried out the final review of all the texts in Portuguese. My thanks goes out to all four of them for their invaluable assistance. Abraço to Luis Beira and the organizers of the Festival de Sobreda, for that is where it all began. Thank you to Licinia for the tomatoes, cabbages, carrots, for the sound of her voice and her smile in the morning. A huge thank you goes out to Malvildia, Cristina, Daniel, Magdalena, and Carolina, as well as Carlos, Teresa and Diogo, for their warm and generous welcome. It cannot be said enough that the colors in the second part of this book were done by the talented, inventive, and patient Ruby. Finally, this story could not have been told in the form I wanted without the unfailing support of José-Louis Bocquet, who maintained the courage of his convictions throughout the entire process. Thank you. Até já. Cyril Pedrosa Originally published in French © Dupuis 2011, by Pedrosa.
