Through the aphorism, a genre that boasts a long and established literary tradition, the Author takes us on an adventure into a world that is indeed ironic, yet simultaneously offers points for reflection, always keeping us in precarious balance between fiction and truth, between malaise and wisdom "which manifests in moments of extreme lucidity."

By immortalizing, therefore, with the transcription "what I might have forgotten, what I might have rendered to you," he predisposes us to look at ourselves and others without dissembling, nor veils, nor illusions of any nature: "Let go of stubbornness. Allow essence to surface, and dress it with taste," even with the awareness that in man, beyond virtues, there are always defects and vices.

On the cover "Self-Portrait with Death" by the painter Arnold Bocklin, an image that fully reflects the author's condition.

Agile volume to read and reread, published by the publishing house "Tabula Fati."

Highly recommended.
