The book begins with \"Mi barco\" (1966), his first collection of poems, followed by \"Subversión o clamor portugués\" (1975), a set of poems reflecting an intense vital and political experience. Between them, \"El maravilloso mundo de las abejas\" (1969) is included, a poetic album for children that shows the author's versatility. The collection is completed with \"El Peralejo\" (1978), his third book of poems, and \"El concejo\" (1979), a short theatrical work performed in the streets of Madrid.
