Adília Lopes

Author · 14 books

"Adília Lopes da Silva and Maria José de Oliveira Viana Fidalgo are one and the same person. They are me. As poppy is a poppy. And many other names that I don’t know. Adília Lopes is water in gaseous state, Maria José is the same water in solid form. I'm a woman, I'm Portuguese, I’m from Lisbon, I’m a poet, I'm a linguist (we all are), I'm a physicist, I'm a librarian, I'm an archivist, I'm shortsighted, I was born on 20 April 1960, I'm single, I have no children, I'm catholic, I have brown eyes, I measure 1.56 m, now I weight 80 kg, I use the short hair since 1981, the hair is dark brown with many white hairs. (...) it's clear that the poet is always the idiot of the family, the crazy one".
