The book opens with seven rules for its reader, from a waistcoat with plenty of pockets and a lucky charm to some capilé syrup, and asks them to stop relying on logic alone so they can marvel at being alive. In conversation with the tale of João Sem Medo and the writings of one João Medrosa, it leads them up against a Wall to break through and a Forest to cross, past suffering that cannot be shared and a Lady Naked Truth.
