Throughout the narrative, which is woven together with simple prose, the poems written by the monk are incorporated. These closely follow the structure of Japanese haiku. The illustrations, sculptures made on paper and ceramics, establish a dialogue with the images that emerge from the poems. foreign rights contact Peggy Espinosa E-mail petra@petraediciones.com -

The book is structured like repertoires, lists, catalogues, inventories, prototypes, encyclopedias; like an imaginary library of collections, series, encounters. A documentary, journalistic writing.” foreign rights contact Peggy Espinosa E-mail petra@petraediciones.com
