Vela (Candle)
by Alejandra Valverde
Description
The pages of Vela follow the inner journey of a creator. In the words of the author: "they show how the protagonist shapes the texts, while he portrays himself, experimenting with his texts and evolving along with them". The very title of this book alludes to the idea of evolution of form. The flame is a raison d'être of the candle, and the movement that sustains it dwells between two worlds. A candle transforms, its wax changes, and it ceases to be a candle: it ceases to have a certain form. A candle lives haunted by its imminent extinction, it is the search for a balance. The more active the fire of a candle is, the sooner it will disappear; it can last a night or a century, it is this dramatic condition of existence that is in these pages.
