In 2005, I produced a weekly disgusting recipe for the kids’ magazine Kulto (Produções Fictícias), that was a supplement to Público newspaper. The forty most disgusting, including squashed dogs & monkey brains (actually delicious to eat, but disgusting to look at) were turned into a book the following year by Guerra e Paz.
Good for upsetting uptight grannies. No one has been sick. Yet.

Agustina is one of Portugal’s best loved authors. In this book she re-imagined some of this country’s most well known characters, from Viriato of ancient times to Salazar, the dictator. It was a huge privilege to be asked by Guerra e Paz to illustrate this book. It is a beautifully bound book, a lovely thing to hold and read.


An 18th century story of a little devil who meets a soldier on his way across Portugal.
