Andrea Bernal weaves a reflection on the nature that surrounds us, the sea as beauty and freedom, but also as a space of the sinister and immigration. Inspired by André Breton's \u003cem\u003eL'air de l'eau\u003c\/em\u003e and Paracelsus's nymphs, this collection of verses invites an immersion into the inner souls that resonate with others, demonstrating that all depth is shared.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe work was born from Los Hervideros in Lanzarote and dives into the duality of the ocean. On one hand, the sea is presented as a symbol of beauty, freedom, and pleasure, a constant presence in island life that never feels alien. On the other hand, the poet addresses the sea of the sinister: the ocean as a stage for immigration, a shared space that we often forget. The figure of the Ondina, an aquatic nymph who emerges from the deep, becomes a metaphor for the inner souls that resonate with the experiences of others. Through these verses, inspired by the work of André Breton and the tradition of Paracelsus's nymphs, Bernal explores the connection between water, nature, and the human condition, offering poetry that is at once intimate and universal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eWater as a symbol of origin, necessity, and transformation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe duality of the sea: beauty and pleasure versus the sinister and immigration.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eIsland nature and its influence on identity and perception.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eInner depth and the resonance between human souls.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eInspiration from the surrealism of André Breton and the mythology of nymphs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at readers of contemporary poetry interested in the exploration of nature and the human condition.

Andrea Bernal succeeds in making the sea, the central element of the work, both a space of beauty and freedom and a reminder of uncomfortable realities. The influence of André Breton and Paracelsus provides a layer of symbolic depth that will enrich readers familiar with these traditions, while its accessible language makes it suitable for those approaching contemporary poetry for the first time. It is a highly recommended work for those seeking a brief but meaningful read that invites reflection on water, identity, and human connection.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HUERGA Y FIERRO EDITORES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53409968947547,"sku":"9788412850673","price":12.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1018\/0650\/6331\/files\/978841285067.jpg?v=1781898634","url":"https:\/\/kalamobooks.com\/en\/products\/9788412850673","provider":"Kalamo Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
