Synopsis. This book, first, although it is hard to believe, by Rocío Expósito, is a daytime lullaby, beauty preached, with the tacit certainty of its existence, and of us in its light. It can even be said without fear of error: this book is beautiful and will remain so until the world ends. There is something in it that recalls that aria, “Ombra mai fu”, from Georg Friedrich Händel’s Serse. What is the future of the beautiful? Not the goofy aestheticism of some fallacious films, but to understand that the best project is now, and that in the look that curdles like the dough of bread, the painful crack of conscience, the time, is in the air. Morning of the lighthouse keeper, night of the potter. Pull, reader, the threads of these verses and wrap yourself in what is left. There is a place that does not forget us. These words know it.
