William Butler Yeats was born in Sandymount in County Dublin, Ireland on 13th June 1865. His early years moved between Ireland and England. By his mid-teens he was writing but those works were described as ‘entirely Un-Irish’. With Ernest Rhys he founded the Rhymers Club. Based at Ye Olde Cheshire Cheese in Fleet Street it’s best described as a drinking club for performing poets. Yeats later cited them as ‘The Tragic Generation’. By now Yeats was writing and publishing poetry and stories that were profoundly based in Irish folklore. Yeats is perhaps best described as Ireland’s national poet in addition to being one of the major twentieth-century literary figures of the English tongue. He represents the ‘Romantic poet of modernism,’ with an extraordinary style created from the outward emphasis on the expression of emotions and the extensive use of symbolism, imagery and allusions. In 1923 his fame was brought to an even wider audience when he received the Nobel Prize in Literature. His personal life was driven by his many relationships in love and by his great interest in oriental mysticism and occultism. Yeats also wrote prose and drama and, as an ardent Nationalist, established himself as a spokesman of the Irish cause and served as an Irish senator for two terms. W B Yeats died at the Hôtel Idéal Séjour, in Menton, France, on 28th January 1939. He was 73.Ver livro

Listening to the Voice of the Heart is an invitation to revisit your self-image, values, and to recognize your hidden desires, your secret dreams. At the same time, it brings the romanticism of one who inhabits their own dream and recognizes their weaknesses without dwelling in them. It is an appeal to sensitivity, whether in artistic creation and appreciation, or in attention to affection and the beauty of everyday life. I hope that by diving into these thought pills each reader can revisit themselves and be provoked to listen to the voice of their own heart, searching within themselves the necessary motivations to recover the right to dream. Written by Elian Bittencourt, a musician who composes or a composer who writes, this work understands and accepts contradiction as an inseparable part of human existence. As such, it can be a visit to the inner world of a Brazilian artist living in Portugal, as well as a personal compass and a reminder of important values that are learned throughout a lifetime.
