Minimum journeys
by Rodrigo Gervasi
Description
The bus ride home from high school, a journey underground before a first date during college, a stroll around the neighbourhood during lockdown... Minimum journeys is a compilation of journeys made by a young man over a period of twenty years. Narrated in the first person with the direct, precise and sensorial voice of Rodrigo Gervasi, this book celebrates observation, attention to details in our daily routines.
Throughout each journey we discover that behind the protagonist's desire for order and perfection hides an unexplored anxiety, a reality of divorced parents and a repressed homosexuality. An unfiltered story about the distance between the apparently unremarkable and the extraordinary.
«A frenetic dance in a bar in the early hours of the morning. A complex that I thought I had over. An explosion in the neighbourhood. A mother crying. A feeling that everything will get worse. A mediocre tan at the end of the summer».
