The crowdfunding campaign for the illustrated book "The Journey" written by Liliana Gaito and illustrated by: Hugo Pouca Roupa
We intend to obtain funds to print copies of the new book by author Liliana Gaito “The Journey” and illustrations by Hugo Pouca Roupa. The book has 40 pages, in color and its dimensions are 20.32 x 25.4 cm.
The project began in 2021 and was completed in the summer of 2023.
The process that followed was, without a doubt, an exciting adventure, but also meticulous and passionate. The short stories that would make up the book appeared spaced out, allowing each story to be carefully intertwined with Hugo's magnificent illustrations. The collaboration between Liliana and Hugo was a creative dance where ideas flowed freely, and each written word had its visual correspondent, thought out with care and dedication.

O Quarto
PREFACE BY ANDRÉ MATEUS
The dictionary defines travel as the motion of people between distant geographical locations, for any purpose and duration, done by any means of transport (public or private) or by foot. The journey can be done by sea, land, or air. In this collection of ten short stories, the means of transport used is not one of the ones mentioned above, but another, much more powerful, the imagination.
In the first of these short stories, The Room, our imagination is invited to reflect on loneliness, impotence, past dreams that ended up shattered, and loves that, as Eddie Vedder sings in the great Pearl Jam hit (Black), “they turned the whole world black.” Despite everything, there is still one thing left: hope. The hope of reuniting again.
In Walking, we take the previous themes but build on them, leaving the metaphorical space and facing this dark world that lies outside, regardless of its difficulty or as unforgiving as it may be, rejecting fear in favor of our old friend, the hope.
In Friendship, as the name suggests, we ponder the gift and value of friendship and how it makes us realize that we do not have to follow the path started in the previous song alone.
In The Refuge, we lose ourselves only to be able to find ourselves again. In I Choose Me First, we say goodbye to a passenger who, at one point, promised to be something more than that, but some people who enter our lives are just that, fleeting, and the journey must continue even if in Halfway we take a pleasant break before resuming it with The Turn, in which we gain a new breath to endure The Halt, and we beat The Emptiness and The Silence, ending at A New Beginning.
