No morro da Pena Ventosa, as casas encavalitam-se umas nas outras e nelas sobrevivem a custo os velhos moradores, aqueles que construíram a invicta e que o turismo e a modernidade vão empurrando para os subúrbios. No morro da Pena Ventosa, são as gentes que dão o colorido às vielas escuras aonde o sol quase não chega e onde subsiste a memória coletiva de um povo que se diz tripeiro. E é no morro da Pena Ventosa que vivem as personagens deste livro, a Beta e a avó, a D. Lisete e o Dr. Belarmino, o Navalhadas e o Fulminantes, o Luís Miguel Ideias e O-da-Pastinha, nessa janela com vista para o Douro. Ou assim é até a narradora nos trocar as voltas." -- first paragraph on page 4 of the cover
"Morro da Pena Ventosa is there at the top, in this old port, where they say the city was born. At Morro da Pena Ventosa, the houses are curled into each other, and the old residents survive in them, those who built them and which tourism and modernity push into the suburbs. At Morro da Pena Ventosa, it is the people who give the color to the dark alleys where the sun is not enough and where the collective memory of a tripeiro people subsist. And it is at Morro da Pena Ventosa that the characters in this book, beta and grandmother, D. Lisete and Dr. Belarmino, Ravalhadas and Fulminating, Lu̕s Miguel Ideias and O-Pastinha, in this window overlooking the Douro. Or so it is even the narrator to change the laps." -- Cataloger's translation
