It is not just about absence, but about the daily effort to sustain what is fading, to delay \"the disaster by a tenth of a second.\" The author uses the image of sweeping the sand as a metaphor for a useless yet necessary task: that of keeping oblivion or emptiness at bay. The work unfolds through unanswered questions, probing into the origin of things and the foundations of existence, such as plant roots or cleansing water. It is poetry that does not offer certainties, but rather accompanies the reader in the search for meaning within sadness and the ephemeral.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain Themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eLoss and absence as foundational experiences.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eMelancholy and sadness as states of poetic exploration.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe struggle against the inevitable and the fragility of time.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe search for answers in the essential and the everyday (roots, water, questions).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe link between nature and the human condition.\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 who seek an honest and unadorned voice.
