It already has 16 years in the market and is the only bookstore in the country specializing in poetry and theater. Valter Hugo Mãe called it a “gourmet bookstore” and, in fact, Poetry is a way of being that bets on its own editions as well as on the poetic arts of several Portuguese authors, English literature, Brazilian poetry and small publishers, representing also some of the most important Portuguese and foreign publishers. “Poetry heals, theater is life,” is the epigraph of this independent bookstore, where love for a cause is a source of perseverance. More than a bookstore, Poetria aims to be a “meeting point, for the exchange of information between people and books and for the dissemination of poetry and theater.”

It was born from the owner’s passion for books and reading, and it is characterised by being an inviting, welcoming space, where customers can feel as if they were at home. For the owner, this is the factor that determines the return of customers to the shop. Open since 2021, the Essência do Livro offers the main novelties and launchings, but also promotes the sale of articles in outlet, which represents the possibility of finding excellent opportunities there.
