Through verses that flow with the intensity of passion and the rawness of loss, the author narrates an impossible relationship marked by addiction. The reader will encounter an emotional journey that ranges from the initial outbursts of ardent love to the gray desolation of someone facing absence and a life unlived. A work that is moving in its honesty and poetic strength.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the first verse, the reader is submerged in an atmosphere of anguish that foreshadows absence. The collection recounts the development of an impossible romantic relationship, marked by the loved one's heroin addiction. The poetic narrative describes the start of the relationship, full of an overwhelming passion that manifests in \"outbursts,\" only to then transition toward an inevitable decline. Love faces the reality of drugs, and the bond wears down until it leads to the desolation and emptiness of someone who no longer wishes to live. The book thus explores the pain of a \"life unlived,\" trapped between love and self-destruction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eLove and addiction: the complex and destructive relationship between romantic feeling and drug dependency.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eLoss and absence: the deep pain and anguish caused by the disappearance of a loved one, both physically and emotionally.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ePassion and desolation: the contrast between the initial fire of a relationship and the final void, the \"gray desolation\" of someone surviving love.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eLife unlived: the reflection on an existence marked by suffering and the impossibility of finding a full future.\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 looking for an intense, sincere work that is far from complacent.

Its main strength lies in the author's ability to transform a boundary experience into a lyrical narrative of great power. The brevity of the volume (64 pages) concentrates the emotion and avoids dispersion, offering the reader a read that, although painful, is cathartic. It is a title that will interest those looking for poetry with substance, far from superficiality, and that explores the cracks of love and the human condition with a direct and unadorned gaze.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HUERGA Y FIERRO EDITORES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53409975992667,"sku":"9788483747490","price":12.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1018\/0650\/6331\/files\/978848374749.jpg?v=1781898898","url":"https:\/\/kalamobooks.com\/en\/products\/9788483747490","provider":"Kalamo Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
