In this interview, Goan writer Vimala Devi remembers her life as a writer and translator, «a life turned into a life of a certain lyricism». She tells about the experiences she shared with her husband Manuel de Seabra – also a writer and a translator –, who accompanied her throughout her literary and professional path, until his death in 2017. Vimala shares the memories of her life in Goa, her move to Portugal first and to London and Barcelona later, the memories of the time of Salazar’s dictatorship and, last but not least, she talks about the most important book on the history of Goan literature in Portuguese language, A Literatura Indo-Portuguesa, published in 1971.
