Lucía Miele constructs an inner journey where words become a refuge and images become flashes of a mystical and wounded world. Accompanied by the striking illustrations of Indian artist Shyam Aramban, the author invites us to enter a surrealist space where the real and the dreamed merge, offering the reader a sensory and reflective experience regarding the search for identity and personal transformation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe work is presented as a lyrical and visual diary that oscillates between the desire for oblivion and the impossibility of achieving it. The author uses powerful metaphors—such as \"doves I called eagles\" or \"white trenches of mute time\"—to express the internal struggle between memory and the will to leave the past behind. The title, \u003cem\u003eSomewhere\u003c\/em\u003e, suggests an undefined space, an intermediate territory between reality and imagination, where the poet seeks meaning or a way out. Shyam Aramban's illustrations, with their mystical and surrealist style, are not mere accompaniments but engage in a dialogue with the text, expanding its meaning and creating a unique atmosphere that enhances the emotional weight of each poem.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain Themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eMemory and oblivion as antagonistic forces in the healing process.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe search for identity in a liminal space between the real and the oneiric.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ePoetic language as a refuge and tool for inner transformation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe dialogue between text and image to create a comprehensive artistic experience.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe influence of spirituality and mysticism, reflected in the collaboration with an artist from Kerala.\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 interested in contemporary poetry with a strong visual and symbolic component.
