Painel de silêncio

Abstract

Painel de Silêncio by Celso Otávio Novais is a poetic work that stands out in the Paraíba Literária collection. Published in 1965, the book is a profound expression of the author's sensitivity and perception. Novais, with his poetic skill, disguises a deceptive simplicity with discoveries that are, in fact, the master antennas of a perception. He is a poet who perhaps does not integrate himself into movements, competitions or historical phases, but whose poetry falls into the depths of each person's well, like a clean and magical stone of his own reality. The book is a journey through silence, exploring the complexity of human existence and the constant search for meaning. Novais' poetry is characterized by its brutal honesty and vivid images, which capture the essence of the human experience. In short, Painel de Silêncio is a work that challenges the reader to dive into the depths of his own soul, to question reality and to seek the truth amidst silence. It is a valuable addition to the Paraíba Literária collection and a testament to the literary talent that flourishes in Paraíba.
