Cicatrizes written by Dino D’Santiago (language Portuguese) autorretrato/ autobiography
Metade de um século passou sobre a independência da sua terra ancestral, altura em que o seu pai já emigrara da ilha cabo-verdiana de Santiago para Portugal. Meia centena é também o número de textos que compõem a estreia literária de Dino D’Santiago.
Esta estreia não resulta de uma produção linear, nem nasceu da intenção de se tornar livro, mas germinou de forma orgânica, num processo de escrita e de autoconhecimento que se foi alimentando mutuamente. Escrever foi pedir licença à ancestralidade, voltar às memórias do passado, olhar para o presente e esperançar o futuro.
Ao ser desafiado a publicar o que escreveu, o autor acreditou que a partilha da sua experiência, das suas reflexões sobre o quotidiano, do seu sentir, e também dos seus conflitos e vulnerabilidades, revela aquilo que ele em nenhum momento deixa de ser: o homem comum que, apesar da carreira artística, não abre mão dos papéis de pai, filho, irmão e marido.
Se a pena é a língua da alma, Cicatrizes exprime sem precedentes a natureza íntima do seu criador.
