Throughout its pages, the reader will accompany the author on an emotional journey marked by the final passing of his parents and the disappearance of the family house, a home that sheltered nearly four generations. This collection of poems is not only a tribute to loved ones but also a reflection on memory, the passage of time, and the transformation of the spaces that define us. A moving read for those seeking sincere and deeply human poetry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book was developed over the course of nearly three years, a period in which the author processed two key events: the death of his parents, separated by a long interval, and the subsequent demolition of what was his house, a space that had been the family home for nearly four generations. The work is structured as an elegy, a song of mourning that explores the void left by loved ones and the physical disappearance of the place that contained them. Through a poetic lens, Piquer Garzón investigates the memory of childhood, family ties, and the way inhabited spaces become part of our identity, ultimately reflecting on how to reconstruct meaning when those pillars fade away.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eMourning the loss of parents and the process of grieving.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe disappearance of the family home as a symbol of uprooting and transformation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eGenerational memory and the legacy of lived-in spaces.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe passage of time and its impact on emotional and material bonds.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eChildhood as a refuge and the process of reconstructing identity after loss.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is intended for readers of contemporary poetry who appreciate intimate and reflective writing born from personal experience.
