The Sublime Secret (ePub)

Sal Godinho was born and raised in Europe, a peaceful land in central Portugal displaying beaches, hills, rivers, where (mostly-wild) quinces, truffles, figs, pine nuts, blackberries, rice, grapes, pomegranates, and cork oaks grew graced by the scent of rosemary and eucalyptus. Such comfortable setting instilled upon him a clean, benign perspective of the world, which led him to wish it upon the whole planet. Meanwhile, as far as literary endeavors go, he was learning French and English and studied translations of the ancient Greek's epic poems. Then, he was assigned to read THE LUSITANIANS, by Camoens, an account of the Great Discoveries around the world by the Portuguese sailors in their caravels, three generations before the Spaniards set sail. He was so enthralled about literature that he swore he'd become a writer.
After Sal rejoined his family, in the U.S., he attended The University of Central Florida, earning a cum laude degree in Modern languages. Then he became friends with Sloan Wilson and Robert Newton Peck. They were his mentors. He even did a collaboration with Rob. (Bulls of Montalba). After, he wrote several novels for practice, sending one to Michael Korda, who told him the work ''was not a part of his present list". In any case, part of the inspiration for this long-in-the-making work is due to the Castaneda's books and the Praise of Nature of the Late Sixties, so apropos for the current times.
