You know, you are right, I am an old man now, but you do well, bravo, travel for us, look at every corner of the world for us, who perhaps never dreamed of doing so! Nine are the short stories that make up this collection in which reality always takes on new forms. Japan, politics, football, but also weight problems: themes apparently unconnected with each other but which provide the inspiration for the narratives. Thus emerge allegories with profound meanings, events with disturbing features, inventions of the imagination that create contexts that are surprising to say the least. But above all, what this collection does is immerse the reader in an atmosphere that is at times magical and at times dark, to surround us with mystery and lead us by the hand towards a profound investigation of us. This is how our fears, our weaknesses, but also our profound loneliness emerge.
