Book Summary

The reader will find a collection of clear images and poetry that invites them to make it their own, in an intimate journey through caresses, gasps, and groans. A book that breathes poetry in its purest state.
What is it about?
The author, on the thirtieth anniversary of his poetic debut, presents a work that is the fruit of a long process of creative refinement. He has shed the ballast to seek expressive nudity, offering a collection of poems that unfolds as a stripped-down aesthetic universe. The book is constructed from sensory and emotional elements: caresses, gasps, groans, knots, frost. These elements are not mere descriptions, but become the raw material of a poetry that speaks of intimacy, sensuality, and the connection with the body and emotions. The imagery is clear and direct, and the poetic word is presented as a space that the reader can make their own, interpret, and inhabit.
