Inhaltsangabe

"Jordi Doce is one of the three or four living European poets whose work I most treasure. He brings all his faculties to the rich task of being; his voice inhabits the names, not just with wonder, but with new possibilities; like Machado, on the one hand, and Montale on the other, he is a companion, not a guide, always present with us, never merely pointing what he thinks might be the way." —John Burnside "Unforgettable poems that, on the verge of tales and fables, drag the reader toward a universe of screened images, like 'pollen clouds in the slant evening light'." —Antonio Ortega, El Pais
