Synopsis. This book, Rocío Expósito's first, though it's hard to believe, is a daytime lullaby, beauty proclaimed with the tacit certainty of its existence, and of us by its light. One can even say 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," by Sergei Handel. What is the future of beauty? Not the silly aestheticism of some fallacious films, but understanding that the best project is now, and that in the gaze that solidifies like bread dough, the painful crack of consciousness, time, spreads. Morning of the lighthouse keeper, night of the potter. Pull, reader, on the threads of these verses and wrap yourself in what remains. There is a place that does not forget us. These words know it.
