This small edition, with the opening words of the poetic song "Vents", introduces us to the existential themes of man and nature. The winds are perceived as primitive forces that sweep everything in their path, a vital momentum necessary for an idea of rebirth (or renewal). The powerful and elegant writing, full of symbolic images, leads us towards imaginary landscapes. The verses cross time and testify to the poet's faith, a figure who has become anachronistic in a world increasingly dominated by science and technology.
