Book Summary
Perifèries is a poetic journey from the inner to the outer world that explores love, absence, transience, and memory.

With a narrative and atmospheric style influenced by cinematic and pictorial language, this collection of urban poems offers a lyrical experience that connects emotion with the transgression of personal limits.
What is it about?
Perifèries is presented as a journey from the inner world to the outer, where the author reflects on universal themes such as love, absence, the transience of life, memory, and the constant search for meaning.

Through narrative poems loaded with atmosphere, Yolanda Esteve Giner constructs a lyrical universe that draws from the influence of cinema and painting, creating powerful images that transport the reader to an urban and emotional landscape. The work invites the reader to occupy and transgress these peripheral spaces, suggesting that everyone has their own peripheries to cross.
