Literary - Books translated so far:

 _ The Life of Gaugin (English / Portuguese), by Parkstone or Sirrocco. Parkstone or Sirrocco or Parkstone Press International never paid for my translation, although it was integrally published in December 2005 by a portuguese company called Lisma-Edição e Distribuição de Livros, Lda. Which means that I still own the translation copyrights.
 _ Oprah Winfrey Speaks (English / Portuguese) - Janet Lowe, ed. Campo das Letras, Porto. Own comments, a lifetime memorial of Oprah. Funny, witty, touching, such as she is.
 _ La Orden Negra (Spanish / Portuguese) - José Calvo Poyato, Campo das Letras, Porto. A crime and mystery novel about some documents lost in Barcelona during the Nazi period, goes back to the 12th century.

Translated with the post-graduation group, Master degree in Literary Translation, Faculty of Letters, University of Porto:

 - Original title: THE SLOW MIRROR - Portuguese title: "Confundir a cidade com o mar" - By Richard Zimler, Oceanos;
 - "Rescuing Sprite", by Mark R. Levin - translation English / Portuguese, published by Oficina do Livro. A lovely, touching, true story about a dog.
