Alter Ego is the intimate descent into the Yin and Yang of an unknown poet (for now and perhaps forever), in constant dichotomy between daily existence and artistic existence. Art is present in many verses as absolute gratitude for what it can give to those who dedicate themselves to it with passion. In addition to the substantial presence of introspective reflections, it also deals with social issues, leaving room for current events, capturing a particularly complex historical period destined to be remembered for a long time. The book is at times deliberately direct, raw, without frills, because this is what reality is made of. The author is proud to often wear the jester's costume to alleviate every pain, drawing a smile on the face of those who listen. Interpreting oneself in the world around us is definitely the most complicated role to play. | |
