"This Calvary starts at Miranda and ends at Foz. It starts with stone and water and ends in stone and water. Just as in nightmares, there is no pause for rest. You enter and leave the trance filled with anguish.
I know of no other drama like this, made of flesh and blood, amid the land and waters of Portugal… The Douro, both the river and the region, is surely the most serious reality that we have. No other of our rivers flows along a harder bed, encounters more fearsome obstacles, struggles more arduously the whole way."
