Original Title: Poema
It seems that, driven by some hidden need, Rafael Argullol has, with this book, set himself an exercise that is at once vital and literary: to write a fragment every day for three years. The work has been constructed day after day, capturing instants as reflections of life, Life with a capital L. The calls of beauty, evocation, fear, searching and love construct this extraordinary, intensely beautiful, profoundly human text which invites the reader to travel, with the author, in the mystery we all are. Thus Poema was born, a book full of books which sets a horizon for the reader and is an intimate companion.
Praises
«[...] written with insight and an intellectual curiosity that is quite rare among men of letters [...] A journey through unusual yet familiar territories that are both within and outside ourselves».
