Description
ANIBAL'S JOY
Book Summary
A poetic work that delves into the purity of language and the search for essential meanings. Javier Manzano Fijo invites us on a journey where silence, the kiss, and the honest gaze in the face of falsehood become the axes of a lyrical exploration. In an almost oracular act, the poet preserves the cleanliness of words to offer the reader an experience of introspection and resistance against the world's temptations. A book that celebrates the joy of finding truth in the simple.
What is it about?
Anibal's Joy is presented as a collection of poems exploring the tension between the search for expressive purity and the reality of a world full of falsehoods. The author, like a poet who preserves hidden meanings, proposes a path of resistance: keeping silence and kissing, as acts of affirmation and authenticity. Through clean language and an attitude he defines as irresponsible, the poet faces the vastness of the horizon to find words that allow him to look without deception, right on the verge of staying. It is a work that invites reflection on poetic and personal integrity.
