The true worth of Lidia Jorge animates the streets of Penafiel – Daily News – Lisbon

“He came to the town of Penafiel the greatest show!” This phrase, which echoes a speaker of a car, can fool who’s been touring the town since Wednesday and today celebrates the life and work of writer Lidia Jorge, giving the idea that the writer is such a spectacle. Is not what happened, because it is the advertising the circus that coincides with the Escritaria, and confined to the tent in the grounds of the fair is not able to rival the “contamination” of public art, posters and billboards where covers and paragraphs from books, thoughts and photographs of Lydia Jorge dominate and alter the landscape of Penafiel in this seventh edition of its literary festival.

It is true that advertising the car has a white tiger out of the ceiling, but Escritaria competes with the circus arts to put the town upside down and not leave anyone indifferent pass through its streets. Lidia Jorge is everywhere, on hangers attached to tracks with your face; photographs that show since I was little pedaling a tricycle; adult to talk with writer José Cardoso Pires or Agustina Bessa – Louis; posters in the entrance of alleys, and in most shop windows. Such as the barbershop in paragraph 155 of an alley where his picture is next to two models of male hair cuts classiques considered, as it is written in French in the caption. Or jewelery Feather, where Lidia Jorge and four friends have already entered to buy bracelets in silver gilt with motifs of hearts of Viana do Castelo.
