Summary

In this podcast episode, author Madalena Sá Fernandes discusses her new book "Sótão" (The Attic), which she describes as highly biographical yet beginning to touch on essay and philosophy. She reflects on her writing style as deliberately fragmented and disorderly, mirroring her approach to life. The conversation explores themes of memory, fear, writing, and the refusal of order, with Fernandes drawing parallels between fear and humidity that corrodes wood. The interview takes place within the podcast "O Princípio da Inquietação" (The Principle of Restlessness).
