Description
The Heart explodes in oscillations
Book Summary
A poetic work that defies established canons to explore the human experience from its rawest and most luminous zones. Joaquín Lourido offers us unfiltered verses, stories marked by scars and emotions written from the margins of reason. Far from embellishing reality, the author strips it bare with a rebellious lucidity that names the unspeakable and embraces the shadow. A book that invites you to feel what others silence, reminding us that living also means exploding and recomposing oneself in oscillations.
What is it about?
The heart does not beat in these pages: it trembles, fractures, and reinvents itself through visceral poetry that dynamites conventions. Joaquín Lourido builds a lyrical universe where the most intense emotions—pain, loss, rage, broken love—become raw material for a writing style that does not seek to decorate reality, but to slice it open. Each poem is an exploration of the limits of reason, a journey through the luminous chaos of existence, where human fragility is transformed into creative force. The work moves between intimate confession and philosophical reflection, offering a poetic experience that confronts the reader with their own contradictions and reminds them that beauty also dwells in destruction.

Editorial review
A poetic proposal that stands out for its radical honesty and its ability to connect with the reader through shared vulnerability. Joaquín Lourido manages to construct a lyrical discourse that, without renouncing emotional complexity, remains accessible and profoundly human. The title, which already anticipates the tension between explosion and oscillating movement, perfectly summarizes the spirit of a work that is not afraid to delve into chaos to find flickers of light. Recommended for those who seek in poetry a mirror in which to look at the contradictions of life without sweeteners.
